Susanne Thomas is a choreographer who founded the dance company seven sisters group. She is known for her site-specific dance works, which are inspired by and adapted to the locations where they are performed. Her approach is to either find a site that inspires a concept for a new piece, exploring the socio-psychological aspects of the location, or to choose a site because the theme is not suitable for a traditional theater setting. One of her major works, Salomé, was adapted from its original plan as a maze in a gallery to be performed in the dilapidated cellars and staircases of St Pancras Chambers, creating intimate encounters between dancers and spectators while facilitating voyeuristic perspectives that matched the themes
The document discusses the emergence and development of Impressionism in art. It provides examples of key Impressionist artists like Monet, Renoir, Degas, Cassatt and Morisot. It also notes how Impressionism focused on capturing fleeting moments and effects of light through loose brushwork and vivid color, moving away from traditional techniques. However, it questions the common misconception that Impressionist works used only bright, unmixed colors rather than more varied palettes.
ERNST, Max, Featured Paintings in Detail (1)guimera
The document describes four paintings by surrealist artist Max Ernst:

3) M.C. Escher depicted buildings and architecture from different perspectives in abstract woodcuts and lithographs.
4) Franz Ackermann created colorful, collage-like abstract cityscapes with surreal elements.
5) Cy Twombly made minimal abstract works using lines, curves, colors and text to evoke themes like the seasons.
1. The document provides an overview of art in Renaissance and Baroque Europe, describing major artistic developments and works.
2. During the Renaissance, artists rediscovered realism and naturalism, influenced by classical antiquity. Major Italian artists included Giotto, Masaccio, Donatello, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael.
3. The Baroque period saw a shift to drama, emotion, and splendor in art. Important Baroque artists mentioned include Caravaggio, Bernini, Rubens, Velázquez, Vermeer, and architects like Bernini and Boffrand.
The document proposes an art installation for the Queens Museum that responds to activity on a fictional woman's social media account, with objects in the gallery changing based on likes of her strange posts that examine themes of permanence, scale, and weight. The gallery space is designed to mirror and comment on the woman's online world through interconnected rooms and objects that have been altered by their virtual interactions. Visitors will observe the changing installation while viewing the woman's profile on their smartphones to uncover the relationships between the physical objects and her online presence.
The document provides details on paintings of angels by famous artists such as Raphael, Bruegel, Giotto, Leonardo da Vinci, Caravaggio and Chagall. It includes descriptions of specific angel depictions in each painting and highlights artistic elements and interpretations such as the cherubic figures in Raphael's Sistine Madonna and the use of light and wings in Caravaggio's Rest on the Flight to Egypt. The document aims to showcase different artistic visions of angels throughout history.

Red is a symbolic color that can represent power, love, death, passion, splendor, and sacrifice. The document discusses several artworks from the 15th-20th centuries and how they use red to symbolize these meanings, including maternal bond in the Lucca Madonna, cruelty and death in The Death of Sardanapalus, and high status in portraits of a young man and King Louis XIV.
The document provides information on several paintings by Paul Cézanne from 1890-1906. It describes his style of depicting individuals or landscapes in a simplified manner through planes of color rather than detailed rendering. It notes that Cézanne sought to interpret and transfer images to canvas rather than reproduce nature exactly, anticipating later abstract art through reducing forms to basic shapes.
This document provides details on several famous paintings of Old Testament scenes by prominent artists such as Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Rubens, Caravaggio and others. It includes descriptions of the biblical stories and events depicted in the paintings, as well as analyses of artistic styles, compositions, symbolism and other elements within the individual works. Specific paintings summarized include Giovanni di Paolo's "The Creation and the Expulsion from Paradise", Michelangelo's "Creation of Adam" and "The Fall and Expulsion from Garden of Eden", and Rembrandt's "Belshazzar's Feast" and "Sacrifice of Isaac".
This document summarizes an investigation into cymatics, the study of visible sound vibrations. It describes various cymatics experiments using different materials like salt, sand, and water. It also discusses images by photographer Harald Finster that resemble cymatic patterns. The document then outlines the development of a design project exploring cymatics and its relationship to concepts in origami, architecture, and transportation in Kyoto, Japan. Models were created to represent proposed metro station designs applying principles of movement derived from cymatics research.
The document provides background information on the Dada artistic movement that emerged during and after World War I in protest of militarism and Western culture. It discusses key Dada figures like Tristan Tzara and Jean Arp and their rejection of reason and aesthetics. It also covers Surrealism and figures associated with it like Max Ernst, Salvador Dali, and Joan Miro who incorporated dreamlike imagery and automatism. Andre Breton is discussed as a pioneer of Surrealism who emphasized tapping into the unconscious mind.
The document provides details on 12 artworks from famous painters depicting scenes from the Old Testament. It includes the title, artist, date created, materials, dimensions and location of each painting. For several of the pieces, it also provides 1-3 sentences summarizing the biblical scene depicted and key aspects of the artist's composition and style. The artworks cover stories from Genesis, including the creation of animals and humans in the Garden of Eden, and narratives involving figures like Judith, Esther and Joseph.
- Diego Velázquez painted portraits of ordinary people like his studio assistant Juan de Pareja with the same dignity as portraits of noblemen. He also included soldiers in his painting Surrender of Breda.
- Later artists like Manet painted scenes of everyday life, like a waitress serving in a café.
- The Impressionists like Monet captured effects of light and atmosphere in paintings of landscapes and city scenes. Turner and Whistler's works pushed toward abstraction.
- Picasso and Duchamp experimented with collage and incorporating real objects into their works, questioning the boundaries between art and reality. This helped pave the way for more abstract and conceptual art.
“Bodies, Space and the Virtual: A Narrative of Becoming"James Barrett
This document discusses how augmented and virtual reality technologies can be used to augment physical spaces and create new virtual spaces and experiences. It mentions examples like using augmented reality to make it appear that the Beatles are performing in Dam Square, and a museum application that allows users to explore historical spaces. The document also references how early technologies like punchcard-controlled looms were precursors to modern computing and virtual environments.
Kunstmuseum Basel, Basel_Paintings Collection, The Masterpieces (1)guimera
The document provides details on artworks from the paintings collection of the Kunstmuseum Basel in Switzerland. It includes 15 artworks from prominent European artists such as Lucas Cranach the Elder, Hans Holbein the Younger, Hans Baldung Grien, Matthias Grünewald, and Pablo Picasso. For each artwork, there are 1-6 images accompanied by short descriptions providing key details like the title, date, materials, and subject matter or narrative depicted. The collection highlights representational paintings spanning the 15th-20th centuries.
Installation art emerged as a central practice in contemporary art in the late 20th century. It is defined not by traditional media but by the message conveyed through various means. Artists create immersive, interactive environments that often involve the viewer directly and blur boundaries between art and participant. New technologies further expand possibilities for installation works, allowing ideas from prior decades to be realized through computer and electronic components that respond to viewers in real time.

ACTOR, SPACE, LIGHT,
PAINTING
T HE ART OF STAGE PRODUCTION is the art of projecting into Space what the original author was only able to project in
Time. The temporal element is implicit within any text, with or
without music . . . The first factor in staging is the interpreter: the
actor himself. The actor carries the action. Without him there can
be no action and hence no drama ... The body is alive, mobile and
plastic; it exists in three dimensions. Space and the objects used
by the body must most carefully take this fact into account. The
overall arrangement of the setting comes just after the actor in
importance; it is through it that the actor makes contact with and
assumes reality within the scenic space.
Thus we already have two essential elements: the actor and
the spatial arrangement of the setting, which must conform to his
plastic form and his three-dimensionality.
What else is there?
Light!
Light, just like the actor, must become active; and in order to
grant to it the status of a medium of dramatic expression it must
be placed in the service of ... the actor who is above it in the
production hierarchy, and in the service of the dramatic and plastic
expression of the actor.
... Light has an almost miraculous flexibility . . . it can cre
ate shadows, make them living, and spread the harmony of their
vibrations in space just as music does. In light we possess a most
powerful means of expression through space, if this space is placed
in the service of the actor.

1) Sophie Calle's "The Hotel - Room 47" photographs of a hotel room that tell the story of its absent occupants.
2) Marcel Duchamp's 1942 string installation at the "First Papers of Surrealism" exhibition that framed the artworks and criticized war.
3) Ryoji Ikeda's 2010 multimedia artwork "Test Pattern [n ̊3]" that converts data into flashing barcodes and audio to overwhelm viewers.
4) Michael Raedecker's 2004 painting "Brilliant Gloom" that depicts a house floating in space surrounded by bright lights above a dark landscape, creating a sense of
The document discusses the origins and purposes of cave paintings. It notes that the earliest cave paintings in Europe date back 40,000 years ago in Spain. While the exact purpose is unknown, theories suggest they were not merely decorations but may have been used to communicate or for religious/ceremonial purposes. The first cave paintings were discovered in 1870 in Altamira, Spain and were painted between 16,000-9,000 BC by the Magdalenian people, mainly depicting bisons.
Robert Lepage is a Canadian theatre director known for integrating new technologies into his productions. His shows feature movable scenic elements and projections that transform the stage space. In this document, Lepage discusses his creative process and the recurring themes and techniques in his work, such as the use of a "machine" as a dramatic, scenic, and acting element that undergoes metamorphoses mirroring those of the characters and story. Technology, multiculturalism, and creation as an ongoing work-in-progress are also addressed.
This document discusses different types of figuration and representation in art, including realism, abstraction, and non-objective art. It provides examples of works that use various techniques like camouflage, anamorphic projection, and optical illusions to manipulate perception. Specifically, it examines Constantin Brancusi's abstracted bird sculpture, Robert Lazzarini's distorted payphone sculpture, and Isamu Noguchi's levitating water fountains that use tricks and hidden supports to create illusions.

The Work of Art
in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction
WALTER BENJAMIN
“Our fine arts were developed, their types and uses were established, in times
very different from the present, by men whose power of action upon things was
insignificant in comparison with ours. But the amazing growth of our
techniques, the adaptability and precision they have attained, the ideas and
habits they are creating, make it a certainty that profound changes are
impending in the ancient craft of the Beautiful. In all the arts there is a
physical component which can no longer be considered or treated as it used to
be, which cannot remain unaffected by our modern knowledge and power. For
the last twenty years neither matter nor space nor time has been what it was
from time immemorial. We must expect great innovations to transform the
entire technique of the arts, thereby affecting artistic invention itself and
perhaps even bringing about an amazing change in our very notion of art.”*

PREFACE
When Marx undertook his critique of the capitalistic mode of production,
this mode was in its infancy. Marx directed his efforts in such a way as to give
them prognostic value. He went back to the basic conditions underlying
capitalistic production and through his presentation showed what could be
expected of capitalism in the future. The result was that one could expect it not
only to exploit the proletariat with increasing intensity, but ultimately to create
conditions which would make it possible to abolish capitalism itself.
The transformation of the superstructure, which takes place far more slowly
than that of the substructure, has taken more than half a century to manifest in
all areas of culture the change in the conditions of production. Only today can it
be indicated what form this has taken. Certain prognostic requirements should
be met by these statements. However, theses about the art of the proletariat after
its assumption of power or about the art of a classless society would have less

Soo Sunny Park and Spencer Topel created an interactive site-specific installation called "Capturing Resonance" for the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum. The installation transformed a narrow gallery space connecting two floors into a glittering sculpture made of chain link and iridescent plexiglass that responded to light, sound, and motion. Visitors walking through would trigger sensors activating blended sound compositions that animated the shifting sculpture. By fusing sculpture and music, light and sound, the installation aimed to immerse visitors in an experience of perceptual play through their movement in the space.
This pitch pack proposes an interactive art installation called Galaxy Ballroom. It includes character designs, technical treatments, and a proof of concept. The installation uses 2D animation and projection mapping to transport audiences through a cosmic ballroom depicting humanity's place in the universe. Viewers become participants in an immersive space that combines art, science, and interactivity to convey profound ideas about human existence through sensory experiences across different media in the fusion of art and science.
This document discusses the use of augmented reality in art galleries and museums, using the exhibition ReBlink at the Art Gallery of Ontario as a case study. ReBlink reimagined 10 artworks from the gallery's collection by overlaying augmented reality layers that provided modern commentary on each piece. It engaged visitors and doubled their average viewing time. The exhibition was successful and received positive feedback, demonstrating how AR can be used to increase engagement with art in museums.

This document discusses different types of figuration and representation in art, including realism, abstraction, and non-objective art. It provides examples of works that use various techniques like camouflage, anamorphic projection, and optical illusions to manipulate perception. Specifically, it examines Constantin Brancusi's abstracted bird sculpture, Robert Lazzarini's distorted payphone sculpture, and Isamu Noguchi's levitating water fountains that use tricks and hidden supports to create illusions.

The Work of Art
in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction
WALTER BENJAMIN
“Our fine arts were developed, their types and uses were established, in times
very different from the present, by men whose power of action upon things was
insignificant in comparison with ours. But the amazing growth of our
techniques, the adaptability and precision they have attained, the ideas and
habits they are creating, make it a certainty that profound changes are
impending in the ancient craft of the Beautiful. In all the arts there is a
physical component which can no longer be considered or treated as it used to
be, which cannot remain unaffected by our modern knowledge and power. For
the last twenty years neither matter nor space nor time has been what it was
from time immemorial. We must expect great innovations to transform the
entire technique of the arts, thereby affecting artistic invention itself and
perhaps even bringing about an amazing change in our very notion of art.”*

PREFACE
When Marx undertook his critique of the capitalistic mode of production,
this mode was in its infancy. Marx directed his efforts in such a way as to give
them prognostic value. He went back to the basic conditions underlying
capitalistic production and through his presentation showed what could be
expected of capitalism in the future. The result was that one could expect it not
only to exploit the proletariat with increasing intensity, but ultimately to create
conditions which would make it possible to abolish capitalism itself.
The transformation of the superstructure, which takes place far more slowly
than that of the substructure, has taken more than half a century to manifest in
all areas of culture the change in the conditions of production. Only today can it
be indicated what form this has taken. Certain prognostic requirements should
be met by these statements. However, theses about the art of the proletariat after
its assumption of power or about the art of a classless society would have less

Soo Sunny Park and Spencer Topel created an interactive site-specific installation called "Capturing Resonance" for the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum. The installation transformed a narrow gallery space connecting two floors into a glittering sculpture made of chain link and iridescent plexiglass that responded to light, sound, and motion. Visitors walking through would trigger sensors activating blended sound compositions that animated the shifting sculpture. By fusing sculpture and music, light and sound, the installation aimed to immerse visitors in an experience of perceptual play through their movement in the space.
This pitch pack proposes an interactive art installation called Galaxy Ballroom. It includes character designs, technical treatments, and a proof of concept. The installation uses 2D animation and projection mapping to transport audiences through a cosmic ballroom depicting humanity's place in the universe. Viewers become participants in an immersive space that combines art, science, and interactivity to convey profound ideas about human existence through sensory experiences across different media in the fusion of art and science.
This document discusses the use of augmented reality in art galleries and museums, using the exhibition ReBlink at the Art Gallery of Ontario as a case study. ReBlink reimagined 10 artworks from the gallery's collection by overlaying augmented reality layers that provided modern commentary on each piece. It engaged visitors and doubled their average viewing time. The exhibition was successful and received positive feedback, demonstrating how AR can be used to increase engagement with art in museums.
The impact of new technologies on theatre and costumeGeorge Diamandis
This document discusses the impact of new technologies on theatre and costume design over time. It begins by looking at technological innovations in ancient Greek theatre like the deus ex machina machine. It then outlines major technological developments that revolutionized theatre, like the introduction of electricity which allowed for new lighting effects. The digital revolution is bringing virtual, augmented and mixed reality technologies to theatre. These technologies require directors and designers to reimagine how performances are staged. While theatre has always adapted technologies to serve artistic visions, the relationship is now reciprocal as new technologies also shape creative works. The future of how technology will impact audiences and performances remains unknown.

Sculpture in the Expanded Field
ROSALIND KRAUSS
Toward the center of the field there is a slight mound, a swelling in the earth,
which is the only warning given for the presence of the work. Closer to it, the large
square face of the pit can be seen, as can the ends of the ladder that is needed to
descend into the excavation. The work itself is thus entirely below grade: half
atrium, half tunnel, the boundary between outside and in, a delicate structure of
wooden posts and beams. The work, Perimeters/Pavilions/Decoys, 1978, by Mary
Miss, is of course a sculpture or, more precisely, an earthwork.
Over the last ten years rather surprising things have come to be called
sculpture: narrow corridors with TV monitors at the ends; large photographs
documenting country hikes; mirrors placed at strange angles in ordinary rooms;
temporary lines cut into the floor of the desert. Nothing, it would seem, could
possibly give to such a motley of effort the right to lay claim to whatever one
might mean by the category of sculpture. Unless, that is, the category can be made
to become almost infinitely malleable.
The critical operations that have accompanied postwar American art have
largely worked in the service of this manipulation. In .
This document provides a preface and overview of the book "Active Light" by Fabrizio Crisafulli. The book examines the role of light in 20th century theatre through key figures and events. It focuses on light as an active, expressive element that shapes performance, rather than just an illumination tool. Crisafulli explores how pioneers like Appia advocated for light as a dramatic, poetic force. However, he notes lighting practices often prioritized technical and business needs over artistic vision. The book aims to shed light on understudied poetic issues regarding lighting techniques and their relationship to performance elements like space, time, action and meaning.
The document discusses the history of digital and electronic art from its early experimental stages in the early 20th century to its expansion through new technologies today. It provides examples of pioneering digital artists like Nam June Paik who incorporated new electronic media into their work. It also explores how digital art has expanded to include virtual and networked spaces, interactive installations, locative media, and works that blend real and virtual elements.

NOTES ON THE GALLERY SPACE
Part I
BRIAN O'DOHERTY
A recurrent scene in sci-fi movies shows the earth withdrawing from the spacecraft until it becomes a horizon, a beachball, a grapefruit, a golf ball, a star. With the changes in scale, responses slide from the particular to the general. The individual is replaced by the race and we are a pushover for the race a mortal biped, or a tangle of them spread out below like a rug. From a certain height people are generally good. Vertical distance encourages this generosity. Horizontality doesn't seem to have the same moral virtue. Far away figures may be approaching and we anticipate the insecurities of encounter. Life is horizontal, just one thing after another, a conveyer belt shuffling us toward the horizon. But history, the view from the departing spacecraft, is different. As the scale changes, layers of time are superimposed and through them we project perspectives with which to recover and correct the past. No wonder art gets bollixed up in this process; its history, perceived through time, is confounded by the picture in front of your eyes, a witness ready to change testimony at the slightest perceptual provocation. History and the eye have a profound wrangle at the center of this "constant" we call tradition.
All of us are now sure that the glut of history, rumor and evidence we call the modernist tradition is being circumscribed by a horizon. Looking down, we see more clearly its "laws" of progress, its armature hammered out of idealist philosophy, its military metaphors of advance and conquest. What a sight it is -or was! Deployed ideologies, transcendent rockets, romantic slums where degradation and idealism obsessively couple, all those troops running back and forth in conventional wars. The campaign reports that end up pressed between boards on coffee-tables give us little idea of the actual heroics. Those paradoxical achievements huddle down there, awaiting the revisions that will add the avant-garde era to tradition or, as we sometimes fear, end it. Indeed tradition itself, as the spacecraft with ...
Giacomo Torelli was an influential 17th century Italian stage designer known for his innovative machinery and special effects that allowed for rapid scene changes. Some of his key accomplishments included designing the first effective machinery for quick changing of heavy stage sets at the Théâtre du Petit-Bourbon in Paris and providing spectacular productions, such as Andromède in 1650. His stage designs were extensively reproduced and helped establish techniques that are still used today.
The document provides an introduction and notes on works featured in the exhibition "Utopia Ltd." held at the Highlanes Gallery. It summarizes each artist's work, how they explore utopian ideas through various mediums, and comments on how the works represent modernist architecture and design within a commodified 20th century society. The exhibition brings together seven artists who open up a debate on the utopian through painting, sculpture, architecture, design and video.

the futureof
Sceno
nniversaries are a time to
look back, but they are
also a time to look
forward. What will
the next fifty years bring? Predicting the future,
of course, is a fool’s game. Perhaps actors will
be beamed onto the stage by transporters; all
tangible scenery will be replaced by holograms;
lighting and sound control will be achieved
through brainwaves; and opera singers will
never miss a performance because of laryngitis
or petulance because their clones will be wait-
ing in the wings. Who knows? So, while it is not
possible to say what the future of scenography
holds, it is possible to consider what factors
might shape scenic art in the next half century.
To look forward requires a look back.
The history of scenography in its simplest terms
can be described as a pendulum swinging be-
tween space and image. Space, in this case, re-
fers to stage qua stage. It is a delineated area
in which its theatrical function is acknowledged
and emphasized; it is a protean device that is
constantly mutable and transformable, and as
such—despite the often concrete architectural
nature of such stages—it is ephemeral. In the
case of the ancient Greek theatre or the market
squares of medieval farces and commedia per-
formances, the very locale of the stage connects
it, and thus the spectators, to the surrounding
world. It is enveloped by a greater environment
which in turn envelops the spectator, at least im-
plicitly, and thus places the theatrical event in
the context of the cosmos. More often, these ar-
chitectural stages are partially or fully enclosed
(cf. Roman theatres, the Teatro Olimpico, the
Globe, the Sanskrit stage, et al.), thereby iso-
lating the spectators and eliminating quotidian
distractions in order to create a fully contained
theatrical world. Of course these architectural
or space stages sometimes employed scenic
pieces or painted scenery. As the pendulum
swings between two points it traverses an arc,
a continuum; only at the extreme points is any-
thing absolute.
The image, on the other hand, aims to cre-
ate a particular locale, whether it is allegorical
and fanciful, generic, or specific. It can be a
forest, heaven, a palace, or a kitchen in a ten-
ement. Since the Renaissance this has usually
involved painted illusion, and since the late eigh-
teenth century it has also meant the creation of
an increasingly detailed environment in which
the actors move—interiors with practical furni-
ture, doors, windows, etc.; a simulacrum of the
experiential world of the spectators. But regard-
less of detail it was still an image, as the very
name “picture-frame proscenium” suggests.
It was Appia, of course, who sought to
redeem the stage as a three-dimensional volu-
metric space, a place whose plasticity could be
shaped by light. The rejection of naturalism and
its scenographic representation, the emerging
conceptions of the interior world of the mind
fostered by psychiatry, and Kandinsky’s notion
of the spiritual in art all meshed well with this
new Appian regime. The great French historian

twentieth-century décor could be understood
almost in terms of Lacanian desire, a longing for
the unfulfilled or for that which is lacking. But
whether the window frame hanging in space or
the isolated door was yearning for the complete
wall or, conversely, its own elimination in order
to achieve an open stage is debatable. To stick
with my metaphor, it was as if the pendulum
were impeded, unable to reach the farthest ends
of its arc.
Postmodern design has reasserted the
dominance of the image, albeit an image of dis-
parate juxtaposed elements, dislocations, jum-
bled aesthetics, and a rejection of the sublime.
If this brief overview of some two-and-a-
half millennia of scenographic history suggests
oscillation between two points, won’t it simply
swing back again (and again and again) over
the next fifty years? I think not, or at least not
in the same way. Periodically there are devel-
opments in history that result in radical shifts
in perception and understanding of the world.
The development of mathematically precise per-
spective in combination with the emergence of
a mercantile society in the fifteenth century, for
instance, or the development of photography in
the nineteenth serve as such examples. The late-
twentieth-century evolution of digital technology
and electronic communication is clearly anoth-
er such moment. But just as certainly as the per-
ception and organization of time and space was
radically altered between the middle ages and
Renaissance, and just as what Jonathan Crary
calls the “phenomenon of the observer,” was
challenged in the nineteenth century, the scopic
regime of the modern era is undergoing a rigor-
ous re-examination now.
Although the stage has always been a site
for the changeable, the mutable, it achieved its
transformations via the tangible. The painted
pots and pans and the shaking walls that Strind-
berg railed against, were nonetheless composed
of actual material—paint and canvas—that ex-
isted in real space. They could be touched. They
could transform only by mechanical means:
someone had to paint them and someone had
to move them. Even the locales conjured by
language as in Shakespeare’s plays (“words
deploy a visibility that can be blinding” French
philosopher Jacques Rancière reminds us),
were brought to life on an actual stage; and ac-
tors still entered through a real door. The the-
atre is perhaps the best embodiment of what
Rancière calls the “commonest regime of the
image … one that presents a relationship be-
tween the sayable and the visible.” But in this
age of digital media, we are more in the realm
of Baudrillard’s simulacra. Images are divorced
from identifiable sources with no obligation to
the real world; they refer only to themselves,
It is a truism that
we live in a world

for communal presence in shared space. Not
surprisingly, some of the accompanying imagery
is created and displayed in the familiar digital
form.) Inevitably, placing a contemporary spec-
tator in a darkened theatre to view performers at
some distance, and who seem static compared
to the frenetic pace of digital media, and on a
stage that, no matter how brightly lit, will seem
dim in comparison to quantity of light in the ex-
ternal world, is problematic. I am still haunted
by the audience response (or actually lack of
response) to the scenography of Andrew Lloyd
Webber’s The Woman in White I saw on Broad-
way a few years ago. The scenery was entirely
created and projected by digital technology and
was probably the most technically sophisticated
example of such work to that time. While audi-
ences will regularly applaud the detailed realism
or delightful extravagance of “old-fashioned”
scenery when it is revealed onstage, the digital
wonders of William Dudley’s digital scenery
elicited no apparent response at all. It would
seem that the look of the digital imagery, and
the dissolving and transforming locales were so
commonplace for this audience that it bordered
on the invisible, whereas a 3-D simulacrum of
the real world is a wondrous novelty that bears
little resemblance to the imagistic and spatial
expectations of a modern popular audience.
So where does this leave us? Live theatre will
never disappear; the performer-spectator dyad,
in real space and time, seems to be hardwired
into human behavior. And live theatre demands
“undefined simulacra of each other.” And, of
course, in this age of electronic communica-
tion, they do not exist in any tangible, visible,
or inhabitable space; they exist, of course, in
cyberspace.
It is a truism that we live in a world of
images, and the ubiquity of images has been
exponentially expanded through electronic
dissemination. (Anyone who began using PCs
or the internet in the pre-Apple days may re-
member a world composed almost entirely of
type, not images.) Of incidental interest is the
fact that much of the imagery we confront today
is created or conveyed by devices that function
as their own light source. That is, we do not
perceive the image because it is projected or
because light is reflected off it; the image radi-
ates its own light. One critic has suggested that
because such an image contains its own light
source it is perceived as its own cause, which
is the Spinozist definition of God. This begs the
question as to whether the aesthetic qualities of
the image are determined by its technical mani-
festation. Is an image just an image?
One might argue that the Middle Ages
and the Baroque, for instance, were also visual
ages, but these, and any other visual regimes
prior to the twentieth century, required the im-
age to be present in space and to possess some
degree of dimensionality. But today image and
space are not only divorced, the image has been
dematerialized. Where do the images seen on
the computer screen, the billboard or stadium
scoreboard, and related devices exist? Yes, the
image appears momentarily on (in? through?)
some sort of apparatus that makes it visible, yet
it cannot be said to exist in space. And the imag-
es themselves have little stability—they have the
ability to appear, disappear, transform, dissolve,
morph with no regard to quotidian realities or
the physics of everyday life. Moreover, while im-
ages were, historically, created by experts and
artisans for the consumption of others, today,
within a certain segment of this new scopic
regime, the images are created, called into ex-
istence, transformed, and erased at will by the
individual viewer.
Most people today have a greater or lesser
degree of experience with electronic media and
digital imagery; few have experience of the the-
atre. (Actually, there is a form of theatre that is
familiar to a wide audience: sporting events and
stadium concerts. These satisfy the human need

that the audience confront and experience
actual space and image. At the same time, an
increasing segment of the potential audience
no longer reads—perhaps is no longer ca-
pable of reading—space and image as it has
been understood for the past several hundred
years. The problem, therefore, will be how to
accommodate the conflicting needs of these two
forces. The answer may, in fact, reside in the
concept of projections and soon-to-be-feasible
large-scale holograms—but not as such tech-
nologies are typically used at present. With a few
exceptions the history of projections for the past
100 years has been as a substitute for plastic
scenery (while still treating it as if it functioned
in an identical way), or as a complementary im-
age system to create mood, convey information,
enhance thematic concerns, and the like. But if
the aesthetic and cognitive vocabularies of such
technology were better understood it could be
better translated to the stage in such a way as to
be accessible and meaningful to the contempo-
rary audience: the audience of the immaterial
image and immanent space. Until that divide is
bridged, theatrical design will remain mired in
an increasingly anachronistic form.
As an historian I can demonstrate that
scenographic space and imagery has always
reflected the sensibilities and technology of its
time. Therefore it is probably safe to say that
scenography fifty years hence will equally reflect
its time and technology. As an observer of the
present I can simply note that the experience
and understanding of space and image is un-
dergoing a radical change, perhaps a profound
one. As a prognosticator, if I resort to some not-
yet-identified form of projections as the future
of scenography, it is only because I am trapped
in the world I know. I feel safe in predicting the
factors that must be addressed. I am at a loss to
suggest how to address them.
