“The Red Shoes,” a screening and conversation with Daniel Herwitz
A great cinematic classic, "The Red Shoes" dramatizes a ballerina's torment as she is torn between an all-consuming devotion to her art and the promise of erotic passion and lifelong love. In no form are the body and artistic expression more intimately wed than in dance. Enjoy a screening of this unforgettable film, followed by a conversation with Daniel Herwitz, Professor of the History of Art, Art & Design, and Philosophy, and Director of the Institute for the Humanities.
