Copy Print: "Form Dance" Performed by Siedhoff, Mentzel, and Fisher Possibly 1928 - 1949

Curator: This is a copy print of "Form Dance" performed by Siedhoff, Mentzel, and Fisher. The image was captured by T. Lux Feininger, born in 1910. Editor: It feels like peering into a dream—a stark, high-contrast scene with dancers emerging from the darkness. Curator: Feininger came from a Bauhaus background. One sees the interest in the intersections of art, performance, and design, which were all central to Bauhaus pedagogy. Editor: Absolutely. It's almost theatrical. Those props! It suggests these figures are enacting some kind of ritual or game. Curator: The figures, props, and stage lighting highlight the performance's constructed nature, turning live action into geometric relationships. Editor: I find this work oddly compelling. It is about capturing ephemeral moments in an avant-garde performance. Curator: Indeed, it gives us a glimpse into the artistic explorations of the time. Editor: It does, doesn’t it? It’s like a keyhole view into a world of playful experimentation.
