| Popis | In my paper I provide analysis of two productions of Verdi’s Otello in the State Theatre in Brno, directed by Miloš Wasserbauer in 1967 and Václav Věžník in 1989. Special attention is given to scenography of both productions as an evidence of key audio-visual metaphors incorporated in the directors’ conceptions. I focus on particular metaphors included in Shakespeare’s play that enter the stage via Verdi’s opera. Scenography – which I understand both as visual and audial means of expression – reflects the manipulation of human senses for the purpose of emphasising and expressing the key concepts of Shakespeare’s and Verdi’s work. I analyse dynamics / kinetics of scenography which is used to guide viewer’s senses through appeal to concept of evil. |
