Frosting as an Artistic Medium

   

Fall for Dance-

     During Fall for Dance, the last performance was my favorite, which was choreographed by Mark Morris. Firstly, I liked the gloomy and dark tone of the music in the beginning and secondly, I liked the way they moved with the music, such as when a dancer laid on the floor and dropped the left hand then the right hand then the left foot and so on accordingly to the beat of the music. Then when the music transformed from the gloomy tone to a more upbeat tone, the dance became more active itself.

Fall for Dance

 I am so frustrated that i spent half an hour attempting to write a thoughtful--albeit untrained analysis of fall for dance, only to hit save and in that same instant lose my internet. Oh well. In summation although dance has never been my go to art form i still enjoyed the performance with an childlike awe--and ignorance. Unfortunately i arrived a moment too late and was asked to watch the duration of "Les Biches" from the lobby.

Fall for Dance

Fall for dance was intense. It was so many different styles and interpretations of dance that it was like "BAM"-It hit you in the face. I loved that we got to see one of the more exciting programs that were held throughout Fall for Dance's run at City Center because my roommate was telling me about her experience and I found that mine was much better. Seeing the show made me miss dancing so badly and so i was feeling very melancholy but I knew that because watching the show had inspired me to dance again, I had appreciated the dancers' talent. 

Mishkin Gallery Visit

I thought that the visit to the Mishkin Gallery was interesting, since I learned how to analyze the various pictures in the gallery. I have found that guided tours really help me understand the pictures in a gallery, even if I feel that there is not much to be said about a picture. For instance, there was a very empty picture of three trees, and I thought there was not much to be said about it.
