For dancer @gabestoneshayer , fashion and its sometimes fleeting trends have been his closest ally in promoting the fleeting art of dance. Representing a small number of Black men in the Ballet arena, Shayer is a creative director and soloist who brings forth the concept of Black men in Ballet that is something to be seen from the great classical choreographer Alvin Ailey, and those who came after - as well as before... read more @reveriepage | #clickthelinkinbio | https://www.reveriepage.com/blog/gabe-stone-shayer-is-merging-music-fashion-and-classical-ballet #balletdancer #ballet #balletdancers #stylediary #fashionstatement #dancersofinstagram #blackballerina #blackballet #americanballettheatre #americanballet #russianballet #frenchballet #styleandgrace #minimalfashion #dapperdan #guccijacket #fleetingart #blackdancers #customfashion #parisfashionweek #parisfashion #fashionweekparis #stylingtips #fashiontrending #danceaesthetic #fashionaesthetic (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CU2L8jeM4vA/?utm_medium=tumblr

Dance Theatre of Harlem “We knew we were pioneers. We were crossing the prairie in a Conestoga wagon, and the Indians were attacking, and we had to band together and make this happen. There was a lot of purpose.” - Virginia Johnson, former Principal Dancer, now Artistic Director of ‘Dance Theatre of Harlem’. Throughout its 50-year history ‘Dance Theatre of Harlem' has stood for more than just dancing. It was born out of a tragedy. After the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968 Arthur Mitchell the first African-American principal dancer at ‘New York City Ballet’ decided that a change needed to be made. In his life and the world. With ballet teacher Karel Shook, he formed ‘Dance Theatre of Harlem’ in 1969. Together, they wanted to prove to the world something that still needed proving back then: that blacks could indeed dance ballet - and marvellously. The beginnings were humble; dancers took class in a converted garage. But as the years went by ‘Dance Theatre’ - performing an array of ballets by George Balanchine and later adding works like John Taras’s “The Firebird" and “Creole Giselle” to the mix - grew and toured the world. By 2004 the company, burdened by debt was forced to go on hiatus. To the dismay of many that pause lasted eight years. When the company started up again in 2012 with Virginia Johnson at the artistic helm ‘Dance Theatre’ has been reduced to 18 dancers - from 44. The legacy of ‘Dance Theatre’ persists and continues to improve. In the ballet world dancers of colour remain underrepresented. Mitchell sadly passed away in September 2019, his work remains. #neonurchin #neonurchinblog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #suzyurchin #ollyurchin #art #music #photography #fashion #film #words #pictures #neon #urchin #ballet #blackballet #revdrmartinlutherkingjr #newyorkcityballet #tones #neoclassical #angular #teaching #karelshook #arthurmitchel #dancetheatreofharlem (at Dance Theatre of Harlem) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEq3J1YFq1O/?igshid=1bp5gecu522h

🌟Starry Ballet🌟 y'all have no idea how happy I am to have finally finished this lil one. She has been through it 😂 I've redrawn, recolored her so many times. And when I was done, I redid her hair into a bun style, which I feel fits the piece overall so much better. . What do yo guys think? Which version do you like? Bun? Or Curlious fro? Fro version is slide 8. . 🌿 Ipad Pro 🌿 @procreate #characterdesign #illustrator #kidballet #mogigi_dsgns #blackballet #blackballerina #illustrations #artworks #creative #characterart #artchallenge #procreate #ipadproart #digitalart #ballerinasofinstagram #artagent #kidillustration #blackartist #magazineillustration #illustrationartist #cuteillustration #blackart #illustration_best #dopeblackart #kidlitart #illustrationagency #womenwhodraw #illustratorofinstagram #teamnatural #naturalhairart (at Richmond, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CByByBlDi65/?igshid=c55wy39gtyx5
