In the near foreground, the dancers have been caught dancing the pas de deux. This celebrates her, Medora the slave girl's rescue by the male dancer, Conrad the sailor, from being sold into slavery in a Pasha's harem. This picture poses many questions including, are petrified trees slaves to their static posture that has endured more than 900 years?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eArtist: MALCOLM LEVINKIND \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOpen Edition\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMedium: Photographic print on fine art archival paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrint Sizes Available:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e70cm x 50cm \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e27\" x \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e20\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90cm x 65cm \/ 35\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\" x \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003e25\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eABOUT THE ARTIST\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"JsGRdQ\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNamibian landscape images of the iconic Sossuvlei, \"dead-end marsh\", were combined with ballet. Sossusvlei in Namibia is famous for its giant red dunes and petrified trees in the salt and clay pans. The trees appear to have balletic forms and make the perfect setting for the dancers I photographed during their live performances. I juxtaposed the emotions of the live dancers with the nine hundred-year-old trees to accentuate classical ballet poses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Emerging Artists","offers":[{"title":"70cm x 50cm \/ 27\" x 20\"","offer_id":41479480541359,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"90cm x 65cm \/ 35\" x 25\"","offer_id":41479480574127,"sku":null,"price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0534\/4637\/7647\/products\/EXPRESSIONSFROMWITHIN_037.jpg?v=1649074630","url":"https:\/\/osnerartgallery.com\/products\/malcolm-levinkind-sossusvlei-ballet-le-corsaire-pas-de-deux","provider":"Osner Art Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
