Moments Frozen In Time

An Exhibit of Dance Images

October 27 to December 2

Opening on October 27, Tuesday, at 7 p.m.

For Martha Graham, dance can only be collected in other media. Alongside film and video, photography is the most important means of recording dance. Its images are sculptures of human posture and light. Like theater photography, it uses stage lighting. Like photojournalism, it concentrates on the motionless moment within a movement.

Moments Frozen In Time: An Exhibit of Dance Images is a traveling exhibit organized by the Tanzarchiv (German Dance Archive) and the Goethe Institut. Rather than just present the history of dance photography, it focuses instead on the more modern trend towards the visualization of dance.

Exhibit highlights and programs include:

• Dialogue as a Means to its End dance performance by Donna Miranda at the exhibit opening on October 27
• The Green Table film screening at the exhibit
• Rhythm Is It! film screening on November 4 and 7
• Moving Body with Mind and Spirit artist talk with Jeannie Javelosa on November 18

Yuchengco Museum is located at RCBC Plaza, corner Ayala & Sen. Gil J. Puyat Avenues, Makati City. To RSVP, contact Luisa Zaide of Goethe Institut at 817-0978 or e-mail program@manila.goethe.org.
