In Landscape With Moving Figures, Ms. Jacobs reflects on the ten-year period from 1995-2004 when dancers, choreographers and dance lovers were challenged with AIDS and the loss of founding giants Balanchine, Graham, and Robbins. The author ponders the very purpose of art as she encounters it in landmark performances of the decade.

Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
Landscape With Moving Figures is the second in a series of monographs designed to provide a forum for the discussion and exploration of new and established issues in the fields of dance and movement studies.
From the Inside Flap
Novelist, fashion historian, and award-winning cultural reporter for Vanity Fair, Laura Jacobs ranges far and plays deep. It is as a dance critic, however, that she stands tallest. From her observation deck at the New Criterion, surveying dance over the arc of a decade that bridges two millennia, Jacobs has forged her own poetics of response. Her book does the art of dance and the art of criticism equal glory.
