MAIA PLISSETKAIA dancer, in a choreography by Maurice Béjart, during the shooting of Willy Botteldoorn's short film "Boléro", 1977 Photo by Francette Levieux, vintage silver print Stamped by the photographer and annotated on the back. Dimensions: 18.2 x 23.9 cm Note: A Bolshoi star dancer, Maïa Plissetskaïa (1925-2015) was one of the great ballet figures of the XXᵉ century. Renowned for her technical virtuosity and dramatic intensity, she interpreted the great roles of the classical repertoire while collaborating with several contemporary choreographers. This photograph shows her in the famous choreography of Maurice Béjart's Boléro, during the shooting of the short film directed by Willy Botteldoorn in 1977. Created in 1961 to music by Maurice Ravel, Béjart's Boléro has become one of the most emblematic works of modern ballet, performed by many of the world's leading dancers, including Plissetskaya, who gave a particularly striking version.
