{"value"=>"<p>Vic Stornant specialized in lithography, etching and serigraphy at Michigan State University where he received a B.F.A., cum laude, in 1971. His interest in dance at the time led him to create “Living Sculpture as Human Art” for the Kresge Art Center. In 1984, he took a course in computer textile design at Parsons School of Design.</p> <p>Stornant studied modern dance with Hanya Holm, Phyllis Lamhut, Paul Sanasardo, and May O'Donnell, and ballet with Zena Rommett. He was a lead dancer with Lamhut for eleven years and has also performed in the companies of Mimi Garrard, Jeff Duncan, Diane Germaine and Phoebe Neville. He has choreographed and produced his own work for many years and recently expanded his repertoire to include Off Broadway and Off-Off Broadway plays and musicals. A photo documentation of three of his pieces was presented by the Museum of Modern Art in New York.</p> <p>Stornant's teaching experience ranges from the National Endowment for the Arts Dance Touring Program and the Artist-in-Schools Program to the dance faculty of Pratt Institute. He was the recipient of a grant from the Department of Cultural Affairs of the City of New York and he was chosen as a choreographer with the Cultural Council Foundation under the CETA Artists Project for New York City. He officially formed his own company, the Vic Stornant Dance Theater, in Brooklyn, New York in 1977.</p>"}
