Projects - The Daniil Charms Project
"The existence of the world began when I let it in. It may be that it is still a mess but it still exists! However, I began to get the world straight. Thus, art turned up. Only now I recognised the real difference between the sun and a comb but learned at the same time that it is one and the same."The ideas of Charms are the project’s initial point. His poetry’s language is unique, individual and thus tantalising. Working with space, colours, rhythms, things and persons meaning his poetry – this is the thirst for discovery of the absolute order.
Daniil Charms
The project is based on the programme Unconscious on the stage" executed by Oleg Zhukovskiy designed as group lessons with students and actors. Three directions may emerge out of it, three parts of a play (performances, actions).
The artistic leader of the Metanoia Company, Zoltán Perovics, and Oleg Zhukovskiy, Theatre LaPushkin, were observing the work of each other since 1995, and, in respect of content, have discovered a common ground. Already for a long time the two artists wish to let their paths cross.
