Syllabus
  • The syllabus depends on concrete expert visiting the Department of Theatre Studies in given semestr.
  • Lecture (20. 4. 2020, 12.00 - 13.30 in G01)
  • The roots of visual dramaturgy can be found, among other, in Renaissance and Baroque’s triumphi and intermezzi. Triumphs organized by monarchs are known also from the Danish and Norwegian history. After the general introduction to Nordic and Norwegian theater we will focus on the postmodern theatre and the avant-garde context of visual dramaturgy which will be exemplified by describing works of Jan Fabre, Michael Laub, Baktruppen and Hotel Pro Forma. Another phenomenon mentioned will be the overlapping between theater and visual art, the key term being the “post spectacular performances” (e.g. by Pedro Gomez-Egana).
