The entrancing Miami-based dancer/choreographer

with NYC real-time video artist Benton-C Bainbridge in a freewheeling meld of theater, real-time video imagery and dance
in DOG DOG inspired by African deities. In December of 1995, Mr. Luquini relocated to Miami, Florida where he has
continued to perform and produce his own choreography. Giovanni Luquini studied at the Federal University of Bahia School
of Dance in Salvador, Brazil and is a former member of three of Brazil’s most important dance companies: Ballet do
Castro Alves, Sâo Paulo City Ballet and Brazilian Dance Theater. He spent many years abroad and performed with
cutting edge dance companies in Amsterdam and the Netherlands.
