Odi et amo 'and' El Latido de las Piedras' |
The temporary exhibition hall of the Museo Teatro Romano opens its doors to guide visitors through its two temporary exhibitions: 'Catulli Carmina.
Odi et amo 'and' El Latido de las Piedras'.
The guided tour will be on Saturday, June 16, at 12:00 hours, with limited capacity and prior registration.
The exhibition 'Catulli Carmina.
Odi et amo 'is inspired by the cantata created by the German composer Carl Orff on the poems of Catullus (84-54 BC).
The verses of the Latin poet have been the source of inspiration for the artists: Manuel Delgado, Elisa Ortega, Manolo Pardo and Rafa Richart.
The tour of the exhibition will be carried out by the artists.
The exhibition first brings us closer to the protagonists of the story, as if they are about Roman portraits, and they present us to the passionate young Catullus and his beloved Lesbia.
In blue sky tone to his unfaithful friend, Caelus.
Also to the two prostitutes;
the desired and beautiful Ipsitilla, and the vicious and mad Ammiana.
Close this block of characters the Lanternari, who almost leaves the scene to illuminate with his lamp and warn that the work begins, young people are prepared to listen to the songs of Catullus, Audiamus.
From this moment on, the artists delve into the theatrical work and create, in another format, twelve plastic scenes that illustrate the "Odi et amo" by Catullus and Lesbia, where each scene is accompanied by the verses of the poet in which our artists have been inspired.
Next, from the hand of its authors, Néstor Giuliodoro and Isabel Martínez, there will be a tour of the exhibition 'The Heartbeat of the Stones'.
The exhibition brings together a photographic and audiovisual work, which brings the visitor to the ancient world through images taken from works of different museums and cities of the western Mediterranean, but it is also a work encouraged by the passion to find a link between these works of art, some of them contemporary, and the texts of classical authors from different schools of philosophical thought of Western culture, a project born with a vocation of educational innovation for the teaching of History.
In their journey, the authors invite us to delve into the classical world as witnesses of a rich cultural period not so distant.
These images appear as fragments of incomplete portraits of a lost past, but we find it essential to reconstruct them in order to have more and better tools with which to reflect on our present.
