By Edwin Denby. Introduction by Cal Revely-Calder
Ever wondered how to really see dance? "That Still Moment" offers a glimpse into the mind of Edwin Denby, a legendary dance critic who danced with the greats before becoming a writer.
Denby, a friend of poets like Frank O'Hara and John Ashbery, wrote about dance with the sensitivity of a poet. He saw dance not just as technique, but as a human experience – raw, emotional, and deeply personal.
This book brings together Denby's brilliant essays on dance, his insightful portraits of iconic dancers like Vaslav Nijinsky, and his rarely seen poetry. It's like a time capsule, capturing the essence of dance and the art of observation.
"That Still Moment" is a must-read for anyone who loves dance, poetry, or simply the art of seeing the world with fresh eyes.
