Contemporary performing art
meets fine art heritage
Wroclaw Maj - Czerwiec 2013
8 paintings, 7 texts, 8
actors
A production of wenn es soweit ist
in co-operation with the National Museum in Wroclaw, the Museum of Fine
Arts in Budapest, and the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna
Ganymed goes Europe
opens up new perspectives on old masters of the National Museum in
Wroclaw. The Austrian theatre group WENN ES SOWEIT IST invites nine
Polish and international authors to compose a literary text on a
masterpiece from the museum’s collection that inspires them.
Jacqueline Kornmüller and Peter Wolf stage these texts with
the aid of nine actors and actresses, thereby bringing the paintings
– and reflection on them – to life. Walking through
the museum, the visitors become part of the theatrical setting and
decide by themselves how long they stay on a particular stage. On each
of the seven evenings the nine pieces are performed simultaneously and
repeatedly.
