{"value"=>"<p>Series IV contains digital photographs taken by Costas from 1998 through 2016. Beginning in 1998, Costas began primarily shooting photographs with a digital camera, however, there is some overlap with analog materials, such as negatives and slides, until around 2005. The series is arranged alphabetically by dance company, followed by dance events, dance schools, dance world individuals, and finally non-dance photographs.</p> <p>The bulk of the photographs depict the productions of over fifty international dance companies. Some company photographs include images of individual company members and rehearsals.</p> <p>Among the dance events pictured here are special one-off performances, galas, luncheons, competitions, and festivals, many of which are not associated with any one particular dance company.</p> <p>The dance schools photographs largely consist of images from the School of American Ballet (the associate school of the New York City Ballet), but also includes the American Academy of Ballet and the Vaganova Academy of Russian Ballet.</p> <p>The individual dancers and choreographers photographs are of well-known dancers such as Alicia Alonso, Roberto Bolle, and Felia Doubrovka.</p> <p>The non-dance photographs encompass a range of personal subject matter such as Costas' apartment and personal possessions, trip photographs, flower studies, and events such as the annual New York City Halloween Parade and Kabuki theater performances.</p>"}
