Ballet is a breathtaking photographic collection,
celebrating the precision, athleticism and artistry of classical and
contemporary ballet. Live performances
allow us to admire ballet's visual splendour from afar, but rarely are we given
the opportunity to study dynamic poses, leaps and lifts in intimate, close-up
detail. An inspirational companion for dance aficionados, performing arts
enthusiasts and keen photographers, Ballet captures
awe-inspiring moments performed by the art form's most remarkable talents.
Leo Mason's arresting images provide a unique glimpse into the world of ballet
and its superstars, featuring a cast of former and current principal dancers including Carlos Acosta, Tamara Rojo, Vadim Muntagirov, Daria
Klimentova and Ivan Vasiliev. With over 40 years'
experience as a sports and dance photographer, Leo recreates the beauty and
seemingly effortless nature of the discipline - made even more remarkable by
the gruelling training required to achieve perfection - and often uses exposure
creatively to capture movement and compose striking images. Each photograph is
accompanied by a detailed caption, providing information on the performers,
work, location and date, along with technical specifications regarding camera
equipment, exposure and aperture. Includes images of:
Carlos Acosta, Tamara Rojo, Vadim Muntagirov, Daria Klimentova and Ivan
Vasiliev at the Royal Opera
House, Sadler's Wells and the London Coliseum.
