Photo Finish

Flavia Mastrella and Antonio Rezza, awarded the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale, bring one of their historic shows to the stage. A man photographs himself to feel less alone and slips into the delirium of politics and solitude. He thus opens a studio where he immortalizes himself, pretending sometimes to be the client and sometimes the expert photographer. And thanks to the multiplication of his image he comes to believe himself a politician speaking to a crowd. A crowd that isn’t there. But which galvanizes him like all the things we will never have. Between one speech and another he proclaims himself builder of mobile hospitals that move directly into the homes of the sick. And inside these hospitals there is always him: under the garments of the chief physician, under those of the patient and under those of the large-habited nuns who replace medicine with the instruments of faith. Soon, thanks to the inflation of his image, he is convinced he is no longer alone. Dates: - Saturday 27 February at 8:30 pm - Sunday 28 February at 4:30 pm
