Annunciation by Fra Angelico
‘I first saw the Fra Angelico frescos at the convent of San Marco in Florence in the summer of 1992. Among all the other great works of art in the city, these have stayed with me the most ever since., where the curves of the cell roof are repeated through the frame of the fresco and onwards into the painted room beyond. There is also a certain modesty in all the scenes, unlike much other religious iconography. I often think that watching dance similarly allows space for contemplation and reflection as it leaves space for us as viewers to create our own narratives and meaning’
