WHY’ The beauty e’ NOTHING
Rainer Maria Rilke and Pier Luigi Bacchini, fragments of works in the mirror in a mise en words inside the body of the actress who becomes a figure, geometry, constellation, tree and flower, Taste and perfume, echo and sign of a single poetic and aesthetic passion of life and death. Myth and nature, both in constant search for the continuous change of reality, The circular movement of living beings, the "dark forest" that surrounds the knowledge of men. The two poets, "Contemporary to themselves", They enter the "double kingdom" of life and death in a Dionysian flow of poetic creation that everything includes and everything envelops, including the two singers: “ - Today you will burn/without fear, arderai, Spripping the past. ”Again by Lenz Refrazioni, The Diptych Mise en "Sonnets to Orpheus" and "Mechanical and pneumatic contemplations" (Mechanic and Pneumatic Contemplations) freely based on Rainer Maria Rilke’s and Pier Luigi Bacchini’s poetic work.
The terrible angel because it is extraneous to human nature – So far from the Christian Angel - of the first elegia marks the diversity of the human condition. It is total consciousness, does not participate in the extinguishing of life, does not die. E 'Pure Energy, perpetual motorcycle, His metamorphosis from visible to non -visible is already accomplished. The actor's condition can turn that of the angel. The thought of the fourth is the impossibility of giving us in full to the other - or what or person - in the absolute know, love, fare. The enemy consciousness prevents us and we remain as spectators in front of the show of our heart.
The poet prefers, At that time, the puppet that, left alone, awaits the angel who will move the threads. Kleist's puppeter-theater still lives in us, Come Il Prince of Homburg, Come La Kätchen von Heilbronn, Like the Marquise von or ... the condition of the actor - away from consciousness - can sit on the side of the inanimate. The beasts - of the eighth – I am, Compared to human consciousness, to the other side of the angelic place. They don't know death, they do not perceive any border, opposite they only have God and go eternal how rivers flow.
