Item Description

This one of a kind photograph, titled “Caught in Paint, David Parsons and Rita Blitt”, documents the 2002 collaboration between David Parsons and his company, Rita Blitt and Lois Greenfield.

 

"Caught in Paint" is a 6-minute film capturing painter/sculptor Rita Blitt painting on four by eight transparent surfaces while choreographer David Parsons and members of the Parsons Dance Company are seen in midair, through the painting, imitating the dancing lines of Blitt’s paint strokes. Lois Greenfield, who collaborated in this union of paint, dance and photography, made dynamic photographs as she, too, was being filmed.


The creative sparks and positive energy of all the artists challenged the group to stretch their limits and perform magic. Quoting the Aspen Shorts Film Festival, "Creative sparks defy gravity."

 

This 17 inch by 22 inch piece is signed by Lois Greenfield, Rita Blitt and David Parsons, making a $900 retail valued print priceless.
