LANDSCAPE AS A THEATER In the landscape, we can find the reflection of our actions' images, which are mere transpositions or representations of our reality; a drawn landscape becomes an identity factor, a scene from the richest shows of history or pathos. The hand of a man sculpts the landscape, it introduces an artificial order into a natural one; a work done in solitude unknowingly becomes Landscape Art. The geometries of the countryside evoke such remote sensations or scenes of an enchanted world. A room turned upside down where the floor simulates the agricultural landscape or an artificial forest scanning time recalls a magic box that reminds us of the allusive and bewitched stories of E. Luzzati and of the traditions of the Verzura Theaters. Within the box, the landscape tells the story of genius entities: Shan and Shui, God and Cain, Light and Shadow and Memory and Hope; a precious part that was taken from the infinite nature.

Abstract
LANDSCAPE AS A THEATER In the landscape, we can find the reflection of our actions' images, which are mere transpositions or representations of our reality; a drawn landscape becomes an identity factor, a scene from the richest shows of history or pathos. The hand of a man sculpts the landscape, it introduces an artificial order into a natural one; a work done in solitude unknowingly becomes Landscape Art. The geometries of the countryside evoke such remote sensations or scenes of an enchanted world. A room turned upside down where the floor simulates the agricultural landscape or an artificial forest scanning time recalls a magic box that reminds us of the allusive and bewitched stories of E. Luzzati and of the traditions of the Verzura Theaters. Within the box, the landscape tells the story of genius entities: Shan and Shui, God and Cain, Light and Shadow and Memory and Hope; a precious part that was taken from the infinite nature.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
