The performance will enrich the collection of exhibits, including an installation by "Tough Mother" Robert Gligorov, a doll-music box, which looked like a barbie, life size, with sexual attributes male.
The work embodies the myth of the androgyne. But not only.
In patriarchal societies, the social order operates as a huge machine that tends to ratify the symbolic male domination on which it relies. According to Pierre Bourdieu, "the biological difference between the sexes, that is, between the male and female bodies, particularly the anatomical distinction between the sexual organs, can thus appear as the natural justification of socially constructed gender difference, particularly sexual division of labor "
Doll House is the collective organized in Vigevano on the occasion of World Day against Violence against Women (International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women) by Pro (G) Art (Committee for the Arts and Culture in Vigevano). The violence on the body and the female psyche, has been translated into the language and images of matter, sintatizzata that "the concept takes shape" by Francesca Crocetti, Valentina Gusella, Mirta Kokalj, Marta Manfredini, Claudio Monnini, Massimiliano Robino, Andrea Simoncini Gibson and Robert Gligorov (special guest).
The title of the text is copied from the eponymous play written by Henrik Ibsen (Et Dukkehnjem) in 1879, a stinging critique on the traditional roles of men and women within marriage during the Victorian era.
"There are two kinds of moral laws - Ibsen wrote in his first notes for the play - two types of consciousness, one in a man and a woman in another completely different. One can not understand each other; but in the practical life, woman is judged by the laws of men, as if it were not a woman but a man. "
The link between this text and the theatrical city of Vigevano is represented by the figure of Eleonora Duse, actress born in Vigevano, October 3, 1858. In the 90 century it was Duse to take on the Italian scene of Ibsen's dramas, including A Doll's House, playing the part of Nora. The exhibition venue is the Road underground the Castello Sforzesco in Vigevano Via XX Settembre, a few meters from the house where he was born the great Italian actress. The video recordings are made by Marco Lamanna.
The Doll House exhibition, sponsored by the Municipality of Vigevano , was produced with the assistance of Credito Artigiano . Sponsor: Ethics BMW, library Nutrilite
