With its vibrant color and brush work and its depiction of motion, Femme en Extase “really speaks of Hodler’s interest in movement and emotion and how the challenge of representing emotion in a static form and through dance,” Asleson says. It is also reflective of the work by his friend Émile Jaques-Dalcroze, founder of a theory called Eurhythmics, a way to study music through movement and rhythms. The practice is still taught in schools (and its name was later borrowed by a 1980s rock group). The swirl of the dancer’s movement in Hodler’s work “may not look very ecstatic, but when you think of women at the turn of the century who were very corseted and tightly-bound and had very strict rules of decorum, here you have this beautiful Italian dancer moving with incredible freedom. That would have been seen as quite a liberated way of behaving at that time,” says Asleson.
