Add to basket"Ballet inspires me. Human beings have the capacity to express themselves through many art forms, but when it comes to dance - and especially classical modern ballet - I am always amazed by that unbelievably elevated form of expression. It's so precise and so incredibly skilled; I admire that enormously." - Photographer and filmmaker Erwin Olaf"The fact that the photographer is looking through the camera lens means they have a different perspective from looking directly at the figure. That is voyeuristic. The camera can do something that the audience member can't: zooming in for a close-up." - Choreographer Hans van ManenThe grand master of Dutch dance, Hans van Manen, celebrates his 90th birthday this year. That has given rise to international celebrations by leading ballet companies with the Hans van Manen festival from 8 to 29 June 2022, the exclusive publication Dance in Close-Up and the exhibition of the same name in Galerie Ron Mandos in Amsterdam from 19 June to 17 July 2022.From the 1970s to the 1990s, Hans van Manen was not only one of the world's leading choreographers, but also an internationally acclaimed photographer. It was during this period that the then very young photographer Erwin Olaf met the famed artist, who immediately took him under his wing and introduced him to the world of the visual arts and studio photography.This book celebrates their 40 years of friendship, with a photo series in which Van Manen directs moments from his choreographic career, recorded with the utmost precision by Erwin Olaf.With text contributions from the authors Nina Siegal and Michael James Gardner.

Een unieke kijk op dans en choreografie door fotograaf Erwin Olaf en choreograaf Hans van Manen
“Ballet inspireert mij. De mens heeft de capaciteit om zich uit te drukken in vele kunstvormen, maar bij dans – en zeker bij klassiek modern ballet – verbaas ik me altijd weer over die ongelooflijk hoge vorm van expressie. Het is zo precies en zo ontzettend ambachtelijk, dat bewonder ik enorm.”
― Fotograaf en filmmaker Erwin Olaf
“Dat de fotograaf kijkt via de camera is anders dan het direct aankijken van de figuur. Dat is voyeuristisch. De camera kan iets wat je als toeschouwer niet kan: een close-up maken.”
― Choreograaf Hans van Manen
Dit jaar viert de grootmeester van de Nederlandse dans, choreograaf Hans van Manen, zijn negentigste verjaardag. Dat wordt internationaal gevierd door vooraanstaande balletgezelschappen met het omvangrijke Hans van Manen-festival van 8 tot 29 juni 2022, de exclusieve publicatie Dance in Close-Up en de gelijknamige expo in Galerie Ron Mandos in Amsterdam van 19 juni tot 17 juli 2022.
Vanaf de jaren zeventig tot de jaren negentig was Hans van Manen niet alleen een van ’s werelds vooraanstaandste choreografen maar eveneens een internationaal gevierde fotograaf. Het was in die tijd dat de toen piepjonge fotograaf Erwin Olaf de vermaarde kunstenaar ontmoette, die hem onmiddellijk bij de hand nam en hem met de wereld van de beeldende kunst en studiofotografie liet kennismaken.
In dit boek wordt hun veertigjarige vriendschap gevierd met een fotoserie waarin Van Manen momenten uit zijn choreografieën regisseert, uiterst precies vastgelegd door Erwin Olaf.
Met tekstbijdragen van auteurs Nina Siegal en Michael James Gardner.
