{"product_id":"9780761171706","title":"Dancers Among Us: A Celebration of Joy in the Everyday","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe mystery of the body in motion. The surprise of seeing what seems impossible. And the pure, joyful optimism of it all. \u003ci\u003eDancers Among Us\u003c\/i\u003e presents one thrilling photograph after another of dancers leaping, spinning, lifting, kicking—but in the midst of daily life: on the beach, at a construction site, in a library, a restaurant, a park. With each image the reader feels buoyed up, eager to see the next bit of magic.Photographer Jordan Matter started his Dancers Among Us Project by asking a member of the Paul Taylor Dance Company to dance for him in a place where dance is unexpected. So, dressed in a commuter’s suit and tie, the dancer flew across a Times Square subway platform. And in that image Matter found what he’d been searching for: a way to express the feeling of being fully alive in the moment, unself-conscious, present.Organized around themes of work, play, love, exploration, dreaming, and more, \u003ci\u003eDancers Among Us \u003c\/i\u003ecelebrates life in a way that’s fresh, surprising, original, universal. There’s no photoshopping here, no trampolines, no gimmicks, no tricks. Just a photographer, his vision, and the serendipity of what happens when the shutter clicks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Workman Publishing Company, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47010770747632,"sku":"9780761171706","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780761171706_p0.jpg?v=1763655837","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780761171706","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
