EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the vibrant world of dance in the Roaring Twenties with this cover of Dance Magazine from September 1928, featuring the legendary Ted Shawn. The image, published in February 1926, showcases Shawn in the prime of his career, exuding confidence and charisma as he strikes a pose against a bold, Art Deco backdrop. At the height of the Jazz Age, Shawn was a pioneering figure in American modern dance, blending elements of ballet, folk dance, and jazz to create innovative and expressive performances. His groundbreaking company, the Denishawn School and Dancers, was instrumental in shaping the modern dance scene and training a new generation of dancers. This cover illustration, with its dynamic composition and rich colors, perfectly encapsulates the energy and excitement of the 1920s dance world. The intricate Art Deco design elements, such as the geometric shapes and stylized figures, reflect the visual aesthetic of the era and add to the overall allure of the image. As we gaze at this historic cover, we are transported back in time to an age of glamour, creativity, and innovation in the world of dance. Ted Shawn's legacy continues to inspire dancers and dance enthusiasts alike, and this iconic image serves as a testament to his enduring influence on the art form.
