40th anniversary exhibition and book101 días hace
 
Scottish Ballet presents an exhibition examining the art of movement. As the Company celebrates its 40th anniversary, we are invited to look back at its rich history through spectacular photographs capturing both the perfection and poise of performance and the sweat and intense focus behind the scenes, in rehearsals and backstage.

The exhibition also features a newly commissioned film Mercury, created by Scottish artist Daniel Warren, who worked with the Company on short film Public: Private in 2004. In Mercury, we encounter a previously unseen, slowed down world of motion featuring dancers from Scottish Ballet. Dramatic high-definition sequences are interspersed with documentary glimpses of the intensive processes and conversations which lead to the creation of movement.

Stills from the film can be viewed here: http://www.scottishballet.co.uk/what....
