Dances with Michael No. 60 is a 2005 by Michael Ginsborg, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Michael Ginsborg made this drawing in 2005. It’s part of a series called “Dances with Michael.” Each work grows from a spontaneous process he calls the dance. He uses Japanese paper here. Made from plant fibres, it feels and looks different from regular paper. The fibres give the sheet a soft, uneven surface. Check out more drawings by Ginsborg, Michael.
The drawing titled *Dances with Michael No. 60* by Michael Ginsborg is an abstract composition of lines and dots created through an improvised process the artist refers to as a "dance." Executed on Japanese paper derived from plant fibers, the work contrasts in texture and appearance with traditional Western paper. The sheet is mounted on a larger watercolor paper support. Acquired in 2007 as part of the *40 Artists - 40 Drawings* series, it reflects the ongoing nature of the artist’s experimental approach.
