Dance is a Visual Art

Here are some links to compositional ideas for painting and photography that I think apply to dance. Especially in relation to the instant choreo composition modality of Ensemble Thinking.

The Painting's Secret Geometry

p.s.
if dance is a visual art, why are the people who watch it called an audience?
