‘Aguarriba’ experiencia de realización de un documental sobre el proceso creativo y la identidad cultural a través de la obra musical de Hugo Candelario González y su Grupo Bahía

Abstract

"Aguarriba" is a documentary and a monograph that describes the experience of making a documentary project that aims to give a vision about the creative process of the Colombian South Pacific music through the work of Hugo Candelario González and his group Bahía at the Chonta Music studio located in Cali, Colombia. From the theoretical point of view are taken into account: Howard Becker (2008) and his sociological theory on the collective artistic production, Langer (1957) and Hagman (2005) on the individual creative aspect and Molano (2008) on the cultural identity . The documentary brings the last 8 months of creation of the latest album from Bahía ‘Ya se liberó’ and sheds light on the collective, individual and creative gears that happen behind its production.
