Art (noun): ‘The expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.’
Sport (noun): ‘An activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment.’
Combining extreme physical exertion with grace, beauty and subtle interpretation: are dancers athletes or artists?
‘Sport is about staying within the lines, art is about transgressing them.’ ‘You find the same competitiveness in the ballet studio on a football pitch.’Photograph by ROH. (via)]]>
