A performance in partnership with the Washingon Ballet.

Andile Ndlovu of the Washington Ballet responds in dance to Barbara Liotta's sculpture, Icarus, and Maurice Ravel's Sonata for Violin and Cello performed by Yvonne Lam and Ignacio Alcover. Ndlovu and collaborator Septime Webre, artistic director of the Washington Ballet, use the abstract forms of the artwork and the mythical character's backstory as inspiration. Performed as part of The Phillips Collection's INTERSECTIONS series January 14 and 21, 2010. © The Phillips Collection, 2010
