[ePub] Guitar World Presents Steve Vai's Guitar Workout by Steve Vai at Arts-Photography

Description

The mystery of the body in motion. The surprise of seeing what seems impossible. And the pure; joyful optimism of it all. Dancers Among Us presents one thrilling photograph after another of dancers leaping; spinning; lifting; kickingmdash;but in the midst of daily life: on the beach; at a construction site; in a library; a restaurant; a park. With each image the reader feels buoyed up; eager to see the next bit of magic.Photographer Jordan Matter started his Dancers Among Us Project by asking a member of the Paul Taylor Dance Company to dance for him in a place where dance is unexpected. So; dressed in a commuterrsquo;s suit and tie; the dancer flew across a Times Square subway platform. And in that image Matter found what hersquo;d been searching for: a way to express the feeling of being fully alive in the moment; unself-conscious; present.Organized around themes of work; play; love; exploration; dreaming; and more; Dancers Among Us celebrates life in a way thatrsquo;s fresh; surprising; original; universal. Therersquo;s no photoshopping here; no trampolines; no gimmicks; no tricks. Just a photographer; his vision; and the serendipity of what happens when the shutter clicks.
