ROSA GINGER BERG
Rosa Ginger Berg's entire life has always been devoted to art and dance in the most varied ways. She studied sculpture with Michelangelo Pistoletto and new media with Peter Kogler at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, the Argentine tango in Buenos Aires with some of the most accomplished masters of Tango history and fashion design at SITAM Vienna.
Celebrating art and her creativity has taken her to a wide variety of places around the world.
She has lived in Paris, New York, Buenos Aires, different cities of Italy and Spain and Vienna.
At the beginning she devoted herself to the fine arts, painting, photography and mixed media works, only to later find her artistic expression in the Argentine Tango and its unique culture. For more than twenty-five years she has worked internationally as a dancer, choreographer and trainer of the Argentine tango, as well as director of her own tango academy "Pasional Tango Club" (Buenos Aires / NY / Paris / Costa Blanca / Vienna) and "Rosa de Tango" and has taken part in numerous international festivals, film- and tango productions and organized tango trips, milongas, festivals etc.
For years she danced and taught with Carlos Forte-Berg (1999 to 2015), starting with their own milonga in the famous Confiteria Ideal in Buenos Aires in 1999, they jointly founded the Pasional Tango Club in different continents / cities and were able to passing on their passion for the Argentine Tango to hundreds of students using a unique structured learning system that they created.
In 2019 Rosa founded her art jewelry label La Maison de Ginger parallel to her Tango activities.
Growing up in a family of artists and musicians, she assisted already as a child as a listener in the orchestra pit of the Graz Opera, where her father played the bassoon, in what was then and now the magical world of music and theater.
It were also her parents who opened up the world of Tango to Rosa when she was a child, when her mother invited her to an Astor Piazzolla live concert, where it all begun...
In eternal gratitude to her late parents she continues the process in art and dance.
Rosa Ginger Berg is also co-organizer, manager and founding member of the concert cycle Moment Musical alongside Patrick de Ritis.
