RIDISEGNATO" |

| The study of the actor's body
languages (including that of the Commedia dell'Arte) has led the Scuola
Sperimentale dell'Attore to the hypothesis of considering paintings as a
"text" for the actor's body: just as happens to language and the phonatory
apparatus in front of a page of literature, so too the actor's whole body
can "pronounce" the angles and the tensions, the positions and the movements
painted by a painter. Claudia Contin has chosen the work of Egon Schiele not only for its richness of themes concerning the human body, but also because this extraordinary painter of the crisis of Imperial Vienna can be recognized as the first painter of the Millennium crisis. So, the actor "wearing" Schiele's work finds himself speaking, with his body, of realities and appearances, of individuality and the infinite, of water and thirst, of poetry and war. Ferruccio Merisi has organized "Il comportamento ridisegnato" as a "guided visit" into the mechanisms of artistic creation; a visit in which the pieces of information offered to the audience are, rather than explanations, simple linear links between theatrical moments of great intensity. "Il comportamento ridisegnato" can be defined as a "study" for a show starting from an extraordinary sign language, projected by a painter's brush. It is probably inevitable, in the very nature of such a process, that in the atmosphere of this work of Contin and Merisi the most important theme becomes that of the capacity of the visionary, of prophetic suffering, of the difference between the artist's inner violence and the moral and physical violence of the time he lives in. |
