Ballet Russes Exhibition displayed at National Art Gallery of Australia, as seen on Channel 9 News. Shot, edited, produced by Mark Jessop.

One of the world's richest collections of costumes from the famed Ballets Russes resides at the National Gallery of Australia and will be on display in December 2010 in this major exhibition. Through 140 costumes from 34 productions from 1909 to 1939, the vivid and innovative dance design of the early 20th century will be brought to life on the 100th anniversary of the Ballets Russes. The audience that gasped at the extravagant and sensual spectacle of its first performances could not have imagined the creative drama that was to envelop Diaghilev and his floating team of exiles for the next 20 years as they responded to some of the most turbulent times in history.
