make drawings and sculptures by Rodin at the starting point for his new job, Russell Maliphant has been provided with the choreography the richest possible source. Rodin observes the human figure, when I was dancing and rested, relaxed and full of eroticism heroically. His keen eye for the effects of stress, and the mass line was so stop its observation of small details.

However, their number is too static. And in the first half slow project Rodin, Maliphant is not fully make the transition from the art of choreography. Like its six performers transform your body and lift the arms, are more like dancers passive models. The staging, arrangement of inclined surfaces and levels that are richly covered with white cloth, is evocative, not only a recording artist, but a canopy bed, even a seraglio (score Zekke Alexander has a hypnotic This strain) .

I wonder what difference should have Maliphant and his design team were left more open visual reference to these sources. Rodin project is wonderfully immersed in hedonism and heroism of his subject, but it is not quite literal debt, nor independent enough of him to become a room full of dancing.
