WELCOME According to documents found in a small village in the North of Spain, the origins of the Spanish language date back to the 10th century. Today it ranks as the second language for international communication, preceded only by English. Presently, the U.S. already accounts for a larger Spanish speaking community than Spain itself and recent studies published by Instituto Cervantes predict that by 2050 the U.S. will be the country with the highest number of Spanish speakers worldwide with an estimated number of 138 million speakers. For quite some time now, the 'hispanohablantes' have been the largest minority in the U.S. Moreover, since this past July and for the first time in history, the Spanish speaking community of California is larger than the English speaking part. All of this shows that the U.S. is clearly moving towards a functional bilingualism in vast areas of this great country. Instituto Cervantes New York offers you the possibility to become a bilingual citizen through its high quality academic program, that comes with our most ambitious array of cultural events so far, which will allow you to enjoy and to take part in the impressive and fascinating culture of all Spanish speaking countries. We trust that this season's academic and cultural programs will capture your interest and that through your suggestions and comments you will help us to keep improving our offer day to day.

BIENVENIDOS La lengua española nació formalmente en torno al siglo X en un pequeño monasterio del norte de España. Hoy es ya la segunda lengua de comunicación internacional, solo por detrás del inglés. Actualmente los EEUU tienen ya más hispanohablantes que España y, según un estudio publicado recientemente por el Instituto Cervantes, los EEUU se convertirán en el país con mayor número de hispanohablantes del mundo en 2050, con 138 millones aproximadamente. Los hispanohablantes son desde hace ya tiempo la primera minoría del país. Además, desde el pasado mes de julio la comunidad hispanohablante del Estado de California ha superado a la comunidad angloparlante por primera vez en la historia. En definitiva, los EEUU avanzan claramente hacia un bilingüismo funcional en amplias áreas de este gran país. El Instituto Cervantes de Nueva York te ofrece la posibilidad de convertirte en un ciudadano bilingüe a través de un programa académico de gran calidad, que se acompaña con una de las más ambiciosas ofertas culturales que hemos realizado hasta ahora, y a través de la cual podrás disfrutar de la impresionante cultura de todos los países hispanohablantes. Confiamos en que esta programación cultural y académica te resulte atractiva y que, con tus sugerencias y aportaciones, nos ayudes a mejorar nuestro trabajo cada día.

VENANCIO SHINKI A DREAMCATCHER PAINTING
Opening! Tuesday, September 15, 7:30-9:00 pm Sat, September 19 By Invitation only Venancio Shinki is one of the great Peruvian masters and a leading figure of the contemporary arts. Shinki, of Japanese descent and Peruvian soul, shows in his work an exceptional mastery of pictorial techniques and the strong consistency of his language. He successfully combines universes that appear to be different, like the oriental reminiscences in the careful descriptions and strokes, the power of dense chromatic ranges based on earth tones, and the free use of figurative elements that challenge all primary logic. His work is one of the most poetic productions of contemporary art in Latin America. Present: Venancio Shinki This event is part of VI Festival de cine Peruano curated by Lorry Salcedo Support partnerships: Commission of Peru in New York, Jeffrey Rosen and Ana Maria Estrada de Rosen, Filmoteca of the Pontificia Universidad Cat贸lica del Per煤 and Consulate General of Peru in New York.

Venancio Shinki es uno de los grandes referentes y maestros peruanos de la plástica actual. La obra de Shinki, de ancestros japoneses y alma peruana, muestra un dominio prodigioso de los recursos pictóricos y una sólida coherencia de lenguaje. Conjuga felizmente universos aparentemente divergentes, como la reminiscencia oriental en las cuidadosas descripciones y trazos, la fuerza del denso cromatismo basado en colores telúricos y el libre uso de los elementos figurativos, desafiando toda lógica primaria. Su obra es una de las producciones con mayor contenido poético de la plástica actual en Latinoamérica. Con la presencia de Venancio Shinki. Este evento se enmarca dentro del VI Festival de cine Peruano comisariado por Lorry Salcedo Con la colaboración y apoyo de Trade Commission of Peru in New York, Jeffrey Rosen and Ana Maria Estrada de Rosen, la Filmoteca de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú y Consulado General de Perú en Nueva York.

This show brings together some of the art of extant original cultures: Aymara, Atacameño, Rapa Nui, Diaguita, Mapuche and Kawésqar.

MEXICO: IMMIGRATION THROUGH THE LENS PHOTOGRAPHY Opening! Tuesday, October 6, 7:00-8:30 pm Sat, October 24 Free Admission This exhibition brings light to the human side of immigration through citizen photojournalism. The project brought together a team of 12 individuals from six nationalities to Yucatan, a non-traditional migrant-sending Mexican state with one of the fastest-growing rates of migration to the United States. The extraordinary product of their work is an unprecedented collection of environmental portraits and stories that embodies the uncertainties, achievements, failures, fear and hopes of those who stayed behind –either expecting their opportunity to cross the border, or waiting for years for their family members to return – and those who came back home and remember. Curated by UBELONG (Raul Roman and Lonnie Schlein).

El proyecto reunió a un equipo de 12 personas de seis nacionalidades en Yucatán, uno de los estados mexicanos en los que la migración a Estados Unidos ha crecido más rápidamente en la última década. El extraordinario producto de su trabajo es una colección sin precedentes de retratos e historias que encarnan las incertidumbres, logros, fracasos, miedos y esperanzas de aquellos que se quedaron atrás, aguardando su oportunidad para cruzar la frontera, o esperando durante años el retorno de sus familiares, y de aquellos que regresaron a casa y recuerdan.

NEW YORK, JUST FOR THE BRAVE FERNANDO SANCHO, XAVI MENÓS, ANA NANCE AND SION FULLANA. CURATED BY ELVIRA LINDO PHOTOGRAPHY
Opening! Thursday, December 10, 7:00-8:30 pm Sat, January 2016, 6 Free Admission Four visions of a city that demands from its dwellers an extreme level of courage; a city that trades boldness for freedom. It is, without a doubt, a city of pioneers; pioneers arriving anew in consecutive migrations, in waves that change the environment of the city while, at the same time, keep alive its familiar character. What would become of New York without its brave inhabitants? These four photographers who reveal the city to us also share in the collective desire to find a place for themselves in this urban mass. No other city in the world demands with such urgency a spirit of conquest in those who arrive. They arrived from Spain; they wanted to feel that at some point they could capture the spirit of this vast city. Photographers Fernando Sancho, Xavi Menós, Ana Nance and Sion Fullana share their vision with us, and we can also sense their own experience in what they see.

Cuatro miradas sobre una ciudad que exige un grado extremo de valentía de sus habitantes. Una ciudad que cambia arrojo por libertad. Es, sin duda, una ciudad de pioneros. Pioneros que se renuevan en migraciones sucesivas, que cambian en oleadas la naturaleza de la ciudad y, al mismo tiempo, mantienen vivo su reconocible carácter. Qué sería de Nueva York sin los valientes que la habitan. Los cuatro fotógrafos que nos la ofrecen participan también de ese deseo colectivo por hacerse un hueco en esta mole urbana. No hay ciudad del mundo que exija al llegar tan imperiosamente espíritu de conquista. Vinieron de España, quisieron sentir que en algún momento capturaban el espíritu de la ciudad inabarcable. Fernando Sancho, Xavi Menós, Ana Nance y Sion Fullana, fotógrafos que nos prestan su mirada, y en lo que ven podemos intuir también su propia experiencia.

16th and 17th century Spanish and Latin American theater forms a living diversity of theatrical practices that transfused the multiplicity of cultural dynamics of the era while at the same time it was nourished by them. If culture is, first and foremost, symbols, relations, ideologies and creativity, 16th and 17th century theater was the privileged space to explore the particular characteristics of the theatrum mundi. El teatro español e hispanoamericano de los siglos XVI y XVII constituye una pluralidad orgánica de prácticas dramáticas que permeó y se alimentó de múltiples dinámicas culturales de la época. Si la cultura es, ante todo, símbolos, relaciones, ideología y creatividad, el teatro de los siglos XVI y XVII fue un espacio privilegiado desde donde indagar los rasgos del theatrum mundi.

The bonds between music and literature have been a constant throughout history. Poetry was born hand in hand with music, and music was meant for dancing, which initially was endowed with a sacred and liturgical role. In this publication, Professor Alcalá revisits those elements in European Literature that connected the word music with the arts, beginning in the 15th century up to the 21st century. Los vínculos entre la literatura y la música han sido una constante a lo largo de la historia. La poesía nació unida a la música y la música estaba destinada al baile, que inicialmente poseía un carácter litúrgico y sagrado. El profesor Alcalá en esta publicación revisita aquellos elementos de la literatura europea que conectaron la palabra, la música y las artes, iniciando su recorrido en el siglo XV, y llegando hasta el siglo XXI.

LIVE TO WRITE LYDIA CACHO FRANCISCO GOLDMAN JORGE ZEPEDA
The marriage between fiction and reality in narrative is indissoluble. From fiction, the author takes a dialectical position regarding human reality and its historical circumstances. Sometimes the author makes an inquiry on the nature of fiction and how it penetrates everyday life to reinvent it. Other times, he searches for answers, while always writing what readers need to read to reflect upon their reality. The journey of the author takes off from a particular context to fly, together with the reader, into the universal.
Ficción y realidad es un maridaje indisoluble en las narraciones. Desde la ficción el escritor asume una posición dialéctica sobre la realidad del hombre y su circunstancialidad histórica. El autor en ocasiones indaga sobre la naturaleza de la ficción y cómo ésta se infiltra en la vida cotidiana para reinventarla; en otras, sale al encuentro de respuestas, pero siempre contando lo que los lectores necesitan leer para reflexionar sobre su realidad. Un viaje, el del escritor, que parte de un contexto particular para volar, junto al lector, hacia lo universal.

SLAVERY INC.: THE UNTOLD STORY OF INTERNATIONAL SEX TRAFFICKING
General Admission: $10 | ICNY members: $5 In English and Spanish with simultaneous translation
The scourge of globalization has brought about new forms of slavery, power and corruption. Some examples are the horrific situation of exploited women and children, and the global criminal networks whose tentacles reach into the political world. What should be the role of journalism in light of these phenomena of global networks? What happens to the right of every citizen to stay informed? Can victims expect the full exercise of freedom of expression to be a source of hope in the face of impunity? El flagelo de la globalización ha traído nuevas formas de esclavitud, poder y corrupción. La terrible situación de mujeres y niños explotados y las redes criminales globales que extienden sus tentáculos hasta el mundo político son algunos ejemplos. ¿Cuál es el papel que debe adoptar el periodismo ante estos fenómenos? ¿En dónde queda el derecho del ciudadano a ser informado? ¿Pueden las víctimas esperar que el ejercicio de la libertad de expresión sea un camino de esperanza ante la impunidad? Lydia Cacho is a Mexican journalist, feminist, and human rights activist. She was the first woman in Mexican history to take to trial an organized crime ring involved with child pornography, sexual tourism and trafficking of women. Cacho is the winner of numerous international awards for her journalism, including the Civil Courage Prize, the Wallenberg Medal, and the Olof Palme Prize together with Roberto Saviano.

General Admission: $10 | ICNY members: $5 In English with simultaneous translation
The Interior Circuit is internationally celebrated author Francisco Goldman’s timely and provocative portrait of Mexico’s capital, the DF. Goldman combines a personal memoir of life, love, and loss with a uniquely prescient chronicle of the Mexican descent into crisis that would culminate in 2014 with the disappearance of forty-three college students in Guerrero, high-level corruption scandals, and massive protests. By turns exuberant, poetic, reportorial, philosophical, and urgent, The Interior Circuit is a searing account of one of the world’s most remarkable cities. El circuito interior de Francisco Goldman es un retrato actual y provocador de la capital mexicana, el DF. Goldman combina las memorias personales sobre la vida, el amor y la pérdida, con una inigualable crónica premonitoria del descenso de México hacia la crisis que culminaría en 2014, con la desaparición de cuarenta y tres estudiantes normalistas en Guerrero, escándalos de corrupción de alto nivel y protestas masivas. Alternando entre lo exuberante, lo poético, lo descriptivo, lo filosófico y lo urgente, El circuito interior es un agudo relato sobre una de las ciudades más extraordinarias del mundo

MILENA O EL FÉMUR MÁS BELLO DEL MUNDO
General Admission: $10 | ICNY members: $5 In Spanish with simultaneous translation
The endless horizon of literature allows Jorge Zepeda to delve into the darkest parts of the human being and analyze the problems that cause him the most concern, and which he has investigated at length, like human trafficking, political corruption or international criminal networks. In his novels, fiction is nurtured by reality, by anonymous confessions. In Milena o el fémur más bello del mundo he denounces corruption and abuse of power, but, above all, he reveals the open soul of an abused woman, one among many in an increasingly globalized world. El horizonte infinito de la literatura sirve a Jorge Zepeda para ahondar en la parte más oscura del ser humano y analizar los temas que más le preocupan y que tanto ha investigado como la trata de personas, la corrupción política o las redes criminales internacionales. En sus novelas, la ficción se nutre de la realidad, de confesiones anónimas, y en Milena o el fémur más bello del mundo denuncia los abusos de poder y corrupción, pero sobre todo, nos muestra el alma abierta de una mujer vejada, como tantas otras, en un mundo cada vez más globalizado.

The Spanish language has facilitated, within the Spanish speaking community, the strategic mergers, acquisitions and partnerships with other companies, contributing likewise to its competitiveness. The fourteenth publication of the Proyecto Fundación Telefónica about “The economic value of Spanish” makes an in-depth analysis of this aspect of the language as a broad tool – and valuable intangible – for corporate globalization. La internacionalización de las empresas españolas ha seguido una senda general en donde la cercanía lingüística y cultural ha desempeñado un papel clave. El español ha facilitado, en la comunidad hispanohablante, las fusiones, adquisiciones y alianzas estratégicas con otras empresas, contribuyendo igualmente a su éxito competitivo. La decimocuarta obra del Proyecto Fundación Telefónica sobre “Valor económico del español” examina a fondo esta faceta de la lengua como gran herramienta —y valioso intangible— para la internacionalización empresarial.

We are used to seeing art as something perdurable, something which outlives the life of its creator. But art can also be ephemeral. It may last only an instant, with no inner desire to turn into something eternal. Solely with his hands and a pocketful of sand - handled delicately on the lit glass, Borja González creates the most moving stories, taking the spectators for a ride along the different settings, backgrounds and constantly changing atmospheres, thus allowing them to travel to distant corners of the world and to the most idyllic natural landscapes. Estamos acostumbrados a ver el arte como algo perdurable, algo que vive más allá de su creador. Pero el arte también puede ser efímero. Puede que dure tan solo un instante, sin ningún anhelo íntimo de convertirse en algo eterno. Con solo sus manos y un puñado de arena – sutilmente manipulado sobre el vidrio iluminado - Borja González crea las más conmovedoras historias, transportando al espectador en un recorrido por distintos escenarios, fondos, y atmósferas en cambio constante, y permitiendo así que viaje a los lejanos rincones del mundo y a los más idílicos paisajes naturales.

LAS HERIDAS AL VIENTO
Wednesday December 9 7:00-8:30pm
Are we responsible for our feelings? Do we fall in love with the person we choose? Or is it love that chooses us, making us shake at the mercy of its capricious winds? The unusual inner workings of love chart unexpected paths that many times stay secretly hidden under the skin. The sudden revelation of one of those hidden stories makes David sink into perplexity, when he finds among the belongings of his deceased father, a man of strict morals, the love letters he addressed to... ¿Somos responsables de nuestros sentimientos? ¿Nos enamoramos de la persona que elegimos? ¿O es el amor quien nos elige y zarandea a merced de su caprichoso viento? Los extraños mecanismos del amor trazan itinerarios insospechados que en muchas ocasiones se resguardan bajo la piel del secreto. La inesperada revelación de una de esas historias ocultas sume en la perplejidad a David, que entre las pertenencias de su padre fallecido, un hombre de estricta moral, descubre las cartas de amor que su progenitor dirigía a...
