Dancing Men: Four Decades + of Dance Photography

0/5 ( ratings)

A passionate dance photographer for more than forty years, Costas has created a collection of images from dance companies around the world. Dancing Men pictures 50 noted dancers in perfomance, at practice and teaching colleagues. Why male dancers? Because, as George Jackson notes in his introduction, "Ballet, which arose in Western Civilization, initially featured men as its stars. Then, men ballet dancers were relegated to doing partnering and pantomime. Only subsequently did they wake up from that slumber to scale new heights of barvura and become, on the one hand, glamorous sex symbols and, on the other, satirists and rebels who took on women's pointe roles and diva mannerisms . Dancing Men pictures 50 noted dancers in performance.
