Angel Gabriel

Featuring one of the premier dancers of
IONA Contemporary Dance Theatre,
Maile Baran-Primacio, portraying the Angel Gabriel
(
a character from one of IONA's classic stage productions,
"The Mythology of Angels")


IONA created this Angel based on a painting by
Leonardo da Vinci, “The Annunciation”, in which the
Angel Gabriel brings a message of hope to the
Virgin Mary. The angel comes to life in a careful
recreation of the Leonardo painting.


Artistic Director Cheryl Flaharty said,
"Angels are messengers, from the divine to earth.
As part of the performance, Angel Gabriel brings a significant
message for each person, and presents it to the audience."


"The Annunciation" by Leonardo da Vinci; 1472-75
at the Uffizie Gallery, Florence
