CREATIVE ENERGY EXCHANGE
ARTISTS: THE EUNUCHS OF MODERN SOCIETY
It is in an artist nature to create. A true artist does not create to satisfy anyone but himself, but there will be no art galleries, no theaters if art was purely egotistical and artists did not seek to communicate with their fellowmen. Love is often seen as the main subject and inspiration of art. If we believe this to be true, shouldn’t art follow the same principles of love? When we fall in love, we often want others to like the person we love. We want their approval. We want others to share our happiness. But, do we really want them to tell us who to love and how to love? The greatest loves in history have defied the approval and the restrains of others over the human heart. Like love, true art cannot be restricted, silenced, tamed or castrated by social, economic and moral binds or any other forms of repression.
THE NEW BOHEMIANS
“Art is the free expression of our souls, passion its creative force. The function of an artist is not to capture this creative energy but to allow it to freely flow from the most intimate personal source within us and out into the world. When an artist indulges in mental masturbation, the connection to the soul gets lost, and social, moral and personal manmade codes block this boundless passion. A man's passion should require no explanations and offer no apologies. Aria is the return to the world of free artistic expression and collaboration, a creative community, the bohemians of the 21st century.” - Guido Luciani
THE NOT SO IMMERSIVE THEATER
Physical proximity of an audience to the actors on stage does not necessarily insure a reciprocal exchange between them. It is my belief that unless the actors clear their own paths of communication by renouncing preconceived ideas and intentions, they will not be able to engage in a true connection with the audience. The actors must search for POINTS OF CONNECTION with the audience - those shared moments, memories or feelings which often form part of our COLLECTIVE EXPERIENCE.
