Why walk when they can dance? And why dance when they can dance naked? This is clearly the motto and main question of photographer Jordan Matter and his book Dancers After Dark, where he immortalized naked ballet dancers on the streets of New York and Paris. Below, check out these beautiful photos of ballet dancers chasing their lifelong dreams!
Unlike in Berlin, where I used to dance and interpret the role of a character, Balanchine didn’t do a lot of full-length ballets. Most of Balanchine’s works are very short, so everything is stuffed into a 20-30 minute ballet. That means dancing at faster and more difficult tempos. You need to have very high stamina. You can’t cheat or relax in these short pieces, and you feel very naked on stage as there is no way to hide behind costumes or stage props. It is pure dancing. It is dance itself!
