Belén Gaudi (tour guide) Recently changed her name from Belén Cortizo to Belén Gaudí after realizing she was more connected to her dog Gaudí than to her sanguine procreator Mr. Cortizo. Yes, her dog’s name came after the famous Barcelonan architect Gaudí, but that’s not why Ms. Cortizo changed her name to Ms. Gaudí. As Ms. Cortizo, Ms. Gaudí had several achievements as well as many fail…learning experiences. She was born in Santiago de Chile, where attending acting school. For the last 14 years Ms. Gaudí, (formerly known as Ms. Cortizo, or Belén, or Panchi, or Francisca which was her name before 1991) has worked in the areas of theater, dace, solo performance, direction, playwright, puppetry, film and television. She also teaches Violence Prevention and Leadership in NYC Public Schools, and is in the process of creating a collective multidisciplinary group with people that met her as Belén Cortizo but who today accept her as Belén Gaudí. She is going crazy adopting animals and lives happily with them in Brooklyn.
