Ferocity -- Stability -- Vulnerability -- Ecstasy -- Behind-the-scenes stories -- The dancers -- Gratitude

"Dancers After Dark is an amazing celebration of the human body and the human spirit as the dancers, photographed nude and at night, strike poses of fearless beauty. Etched in each muscle is the passion of a dancer, the dedication, the hard work. And the beauty: Where Jordan Matter's Dancers Among Us delights the viewer with the surprise of the dancers' poses, Dancers After Dark captures the human form at its most graceful, dramatic, exposed. There are more than 100 stunning photographs, in color and black-and-white, featuring dancers posing everywhere-from Times Square to Paris's Notre Dame to a winding street in Amsterdam and a remote castle in the Cotsworlds. Four sections make up the book, each illustrating an emotional theme-Vulnerability, Ferocity, Stability, Ecstasy. Quotes and behind-the-scenes stories add additional layers of richness. Dancers After Dark is about saying yes instead of no, and embracing the risks and opportunities that life presents"--
