About the artist

A closer look

Alan describes a practice drawn to clean lines, emotional directness, vulnerability, natural settings and the freedom of open sky. In Lost Swan, these concerns converge around a dancer whose body moves between strength, delicacy and suspension.

The artist interview

In Bert Alan's words

I like clean lines. I like to dream. I like the freedom of being me. I like feelings, whether is love, anger, sadness, or lust. I like vulnerability. I like truth. I like honesty. I like natural. I like hard work. I like perfection, in my own way. And I mix all that in my work.
