“Over six hundred pages essay took the form of a PhD dissertation to dive into contemporary art in the frame of the avant-garde. Robert Wilson is known as a maverick of opera commissioned by the main houses in Paris and Berlin. He has also created visual work including drawings, paintings, furniture design, video art, and site installations. He’s the master of light in the performing arts of the 20th century and beyond. A great admirer of dancer Martha Graham tracing the experimental tradition of The Black Mountain College with figures such as painter Robert Rauschenberg and composer John Cage. He is featured in the iconic book Theater of Images along with Richard Foreman and Mabou Mines. Robert Wilson belongs to the unique generation that took New York by storm in the second half of the 60s to set ground-breaking languages. Writers Heiner Müller and William S. Burroughs, and musicians as Philip Glass, Lou Reed, and Tom Waits are among his collaborators. I could not lock myself in for years into any other world.” —PV I Robert Wilson
