“Modern Art and Modern Movement: Images of Dance in American Art, c. 1900-1950,” examines works from the period that heralded the birth of modern dance. While modern dancers and choreographers experimented with new ways to move the body, American visual artists explored the new formal and stylistic possibilities of the modern movements, many of which originated in Europe. I consider the intersections and interrelations of these two major artistic developments as I discuss paintings, sculptures, photographs, and drawings that engage with the developing art forms of modern art and modern dance.
