A Different Picture of Dance

Submitted by Marvin Preston, Mar 21, 2007 11:11

In response to your question of "Does it seem to represent the globe?", I would encourage you to look at and include as a part of your works the photographs taken by Barbara Morgan of Martha Graham's dances. In my view, Ms. Morgan somehow, more effectively than anyone before her or since, managed to effectively capture some real sense of motion in her still photographs. Your more recent technology shows enormous promise with respect to teaching dance and refining choreographers' work. Bravo!
