For Joan Acocella’s piece in the current issue, “Bring in the Ballerinas,” Zach Gross photographed the dancer Alina Cojocaru. Later that week, Gross returned to the Metropolitan Opera House to shoot this film of Diana Vishneva and Natalia Osipova as they danced in “Onegin.” “I have a lot of interest in an individual’s movements, physically and mentally, in all forms of creativity,” he told me. “I’m interested in freedom, and the movement that transitions past structure into new evolved ones. Dance is inspirational for opening new and deeper ways of understanding.”
