...different body types and how they moved together, and how they moved in really unique ways, and each person’s unique virtuosity,” Latsky says. More than anything else, she and her ensemble seek to celebrate beauty in dancers that differ from the norm. The show??s producer, Jeremy Alliger, commented that this “unique virtuosity” of disability let the choreographer explore original forms of expression. “Imagine a master Renaissance painter, for instance, who discovers a new color on his palette that never before existed...
...concept of Susan Boyle. Upon any sort of consideration, however, the idea of “a Susan Boyle” reveals itself to be as artificial as Cowell’s malevolent public persona.

And yet, even more than Titian and Veronese, Tintoretto seems to constantly challenge and evolve, moving from a Bellini-like beauty to the glowing and ethereally evocative religious figures of his later work, which prefigure El Greco. Perhaps it was intentional that Frederick Ilchman, the show??s curator and a preeminent expert on Tintoretto, constructed the exhibit to make Tintoretto seem the most inventive and original of the three. A youthful and fiery self-portrait by Tintoretto helps anchor the first room, and the last painting is a solemn and piercing-eyed self-portrait...
