A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Andrej Uspenski was born in St Petersburg and trained at the Vaganova Ballet Academy and subsequently in Dresden and Berlin. He has been a member of The Royal Ballet for ten years. Andrej grew up with photography, spending much time in his father's dark room. Surrounded by the Royal Ballet's supremely talented dancers on a daily basis and drawn to capture their artistry both on and off stage, he discovered his own passion for photography. His photographs can be seen in Royal Opera House programmes as well as national magazines and newspapers.

Uspenski's volume shows the company in moments of unguarded intimacy that only a fellow dancer could capture. --Daily Telegraph

A treat... Dancers is about exceptional ballet photography and for that alone it is rare, valuable and worth collecting. --Ballet News
