A Passion For Dance 13th May 2008 A photographic exhibition by American photographer Richard Calmes at the Pixel and Grain Gallery, Loughborough Town Hall.
`My images show how variable dance can be. There is more to dance than tremendous leaps and jumps. There can be quiet power in a still pose. There is colour in dance, but there is also line and form. Dance is so much more than `tricks`. It encompasses such a range of beauty that there is no limit to the images it can produce, or the feelings it can invoke within us`.
Running until June 20th |
