Troy KinneyStyle and beauty are the essence of Troy Kinney's art. His devotion to the dance , on stage or in fantasy during the early twentieth century acclaim him as a superb chronicler of the ballet. He displays a sense of choreography with an etching needle, showing swirling movement and airiness in the dance. Some of his well known subjects from the period are Pavlova, Nijinsky, Bohm, and Genee, all captured in physical movement on paper. Born in Falls Village, Connecticut, Kinney studied at Yale University and the Art Institute of Chicago. He was an ardent advocate of the dance, contributing articles to many publications and co-authored the book, The Dance, Its Place in Art and Life. Kinney's works are in the collection of the Cleveland Museum, Brooklyn Museum, New York Public Library, Yale University, and other institutions.
