About Anton Gazenbeek: Born in Holland but raised in Buenos Aires, 
Anton's passion for traditional tango led him  to start collecting all 
types of photographic and video material  related to tango. After nine 
years, he has put together the largest and most important tango video 
collection in the world (now with well over 1,500 videos from all time 
periods). He has written articles for many magazines including those of 
the Asociacion de Maestros, Bailarines y Coreografos de Tango Argentino, 
Explore Dance in the USA , and Tango Danza in Germany . Anton is a 
recognized expert and is frequently consulted by media of all types  to 
collaborate on articles about these topics.  He has filmed 4 teaching 
DVDs with historical material. He is the co-creator, artistic director 
and choreographer of "The Anthropology of Tango Dance" show and "The 
Argentine Tango Cultural Tour".   Anton has just returned from lecturing 
at the TransLation Dance International Researcher's Conference in 
Hamburg , Germany, a 4 Day event bringing together tango experts, 
scholars, and researchers from across the world to present their 
academic findings. Anton gives lectures on the history of tango with 
videos from his private collection and has been invited to give lectures 
together with major tango personalities such as Gloria and Eduardo 
Arquimbau, Maria Nieves and the great Juan Carlos Copes, who recently 
hired Anton to compile a book about  Copes' career.  He is a sought- 
after teacher who has taught in Europe and Asia and has  recently moved 
to NYC.
