Mal Pelo is a Catalan contemporary dance ensemble based in Barcelona, Spain.[1] The ensemble was established in January 1989 by choreographers Pep Ramis and María Muñoz, who continue to act as Artistic Directors. Since its inception, the company has made itself well known in Spain and the rest of Europe.[2] The ensemble has also performed in the U.S. at festivals and in New York City at the Baryshnikov Arts Center.
