Dance through Alexander’s eyes moves beyond performance to a powerful form of cultural expression. His lens finds grace in a raised arm, history in a swaying hip, revolution in the communal joy of movement.

 

His collection of dance photography reaches back to pioneering figures like Katherine Dunham and Alvin Ailey to everyday moments of joy among attendees of the Jus’ Blues Music Week or performances at the Neighborhood Arts Center. Alexander’s photographs reveal the beauty and boundless creativity of Black dance and movement from the concert stage to the festival ground.
