Fall for Dance Review
Submitted by Alex Greetham on Fri, 10/02/2009 - 11:45Fall for Dance was different from the ballets I am used to seeing, as it showcases multiple dance troupes rather than just one, so it was interesting to see how these different dance troups compare.

Film in NY
Submitted by Laura Abreu on Mon, 09/28/2009 - 00:00I find it odd that although we claim to be in a "Arts in NY" course, we have not yet mentioned film as a form of art, nor have touched upon the subject of film at all. New York is such a central point for filmography, there are countless films created right here in New York. I was in Union Square Park on Wednesday and I experienced firsthand film students working on a project right in the middle of Union Square Park. There were various students form the New York Film Academy attempting to record. Exactly what they were trying to accomplish I'm not sure.
A Different Perspective on Hurricane Katrina
Submitted by sarasanders on Sun, 09/27/2009 - 20:37I will be the first to admit that Hurricane Katrina never peaked much interest in me. Whether I didn’t understand what had actually happened, or whether I sought ignorance I cannot say. Last night, however, Thomas Neff, introduced me to this devastating disaster. Neff opened his presentation by defining his role as a photographer. He described himself as a photographic documentologist capturing history in the making.
