Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Forget everything you think you know about contemporary theater design. The explosive work of Russian-born George Tsypin is changing the way audiences see theatrical productions of all kinds, and it will alter the way you think about what you see on a stage. Thanks to Tsypin, the days of stark, minimalist, almost empty sets are over. His maximalist creations fill the theater's black void with a fevered combination of elements, referencing everything from Russian Constructivism to the works of Frank Gehry and Zaha Hadid. Set design, under his direction, is a unique form of architecture, a celebration of structural and sculptural possibility.

Reseña del editor:

This book will profile the explosive work of George Tsypin - stage designer, architect, sculptor. It will present the trajectory of his career from his early architectural training in Moscow, under the tutelage of the Constructivists, to his current work on the international opera stage. Tsypin's visionary designs blur the distinctions between set design, architecture, and sculpture, and his unique use of space has catalyzed groundbreaking developments in the evolution of stage design. His work connects the seminal theater experiments of Russian Constructivists in the early 20th century to the early 21st century opera designs of their Deconstructivists descendents, such as Daniel Libeskind, Frank Gehry, and Zaha Hadid. Emerging from a sensibility which is similar to that of these contemporary architects, George Tsypin is consistently redefining the parameters of contemporary stage design.
