Drawing Dance

A fascinating little treat: Kenneth E. Parris III (Brooklyn-based artist) is taking on an interesting project in regards to dance.  Travelling with the renown Merce Cunningham Dance Company on their 2-year Legacy Tour (scheduled to end New Years Day 2012) he's capturing in various drawings the beauty not only of dance, but of the dancers as people - highlighting their "in-between" time when they step off the stage and onto the sidewalk.  It's always inspiring to see art spurring other forms of art, continuing a creative discourse and deeper appreciation between genres.

Check it out here - New York Times - Arts Beat - as well as the Arts Beat "Related Posts."  Cool stuff!
