[Gallery Talk] Modern Dance and the Visual Image @ MFA

Wed, Aug 19 2015 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

info source

“This unique gallery talk takes place in the Morse Study Room for Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. A selection of twentieth-century prints and drawings will be compared with video excerpts of Modern Dance. Throughout history there has been shared vitality and cross-pollination between visual and performing artists. Compare Dance, Visual Art, and Music. We start with the visceral qualities of German Expressionism; move on to sparse interpretations of Abstract Expressionism; to the use of non-traditional materials and unconventional constructions of dance. The talk will finish with the Contemporary, when dance moved out of the traditional theater and when visual art embraced entirely new methods of expression.”

Limited to the first 20 participants—don’t be late!
