Why dance art

Dance prints need the empty space around the figure to work

The negative space in a dance painting is doing as much work as the dancer, and most hanging mistakes crop it out.

Dance images are about extension: a raised leg, a thrown arm, a skirt still catching up with the body. Painters leave room around the figure so the movement has somewhere to go. When a canvas is hung too low, tucked behind a lamp, or squeezed between a door frame and a bookshelf, that breathing room disappears and the dancer looks stuck. Give the piece a clear stretch of wall and it reads completely differently.

Portrait canvases suit dance best, since most dancers are painted vertically. Over a sofa or sideboard, allow at least 250mm of clear wall each side, and hang so the figure's head sits near eye level rather than centring the frame. Dance art is usually limited in palette, so it sits well against white, grey or greige walls. Busy patterned wallpaper competes with the brushwork and flattens it.
