Katharina Otto-Bernstein - Absolute Wilson [excerpt] (2006)

>> 11 jul 2009

.
documentary film directed by Katharina Otto-Bernstein about Robert Wilson
.

.
The creative genius of Robert Wilson, one of the most controversial and rule-breaking artists of our era.
His revolutionary stage work has so altered our concept of theater that, as David Byrne says, "it makes... other theater look hopelessly old-fashioned".
Wilson speaks with unprecedented candor about his life. Nothing is left in the shadows, as he discusses his restrictive upbringing, his therapeutic work with disabled children as well as his experiences in the New York avant-garde scene of the 60's & 70's.

From Hopi language: powaq = sorcerer + qatsi = life; means an entity, a way of life that consumes the life forces of other beings in order to further its own life.
In the same vein as "Koyaanisqatsi, " "Powaqqatsi" is a film without actors or dialogue. His language is pure image and music. It was filmed in 12 countries on five continents. It shows the world "developing", based on work and production of natural resources, where cultural diversity and sustainable prosperity are stalked by the industrial culture and lifestyle technology (the sorcerer negative). Although the director says it is only a neutral record of how life changes. "... That's all it is. It is neither good nor bad ... "
