Mikhail Baryshnikov aka Carrie Bradshaw's Russian Lover, opens his first photographic exhibition in the UK tomorrow entitled "Dancing Away," which will run until January 31st at Continiart, 105 New Bond Street W1. In his exhibtion he explores two decades worth of material in the medium of photography.

Baryshnikov is a trained ballet dancer and so the subject matter comes as no surprise. It is his vision from both inside and outside the dance world that makes his work so interesting. His photographs emphasize motion of the moment. He writes in his press release:

"I take thousands of images, and it takes me a long, long time to select. My eye catches it and my heart stops. This is exactly what I want."

He's already garnered the attention and praise of publications like British Vogue and The Financial Times. For more information check out his press release Here.
