KEY VISUAL Die Zuschauer
This is another way to look at us humans and the absurdity of our existence. Which nevertheless demands perception and asserts consistency. By looking at ourselves as if we were looking at a play that follows a dramaturgy, but whose author or director is unknown to us and who also leaves us in the dark about the genre.
They are puppets, spectators of our human-world theater, who remain seated for a moment after the applause, touched, repulsed, exhausted by what they have just seen from their safe position in the darkness of the theater hall.
For once, it is us, the people: the stuff their dreams are made of.
“The Spectators” by Martin Heckmanns examines human encounters in snapshots for their dramatic potential. They appear: a divorced father who didn't see his son's favorite character on stage, a young couple who doubted the absoluteness of their love after the theater, an old couple with experience and a secret, a man looking to change his life seeks, and even a finance minister who doubts the economization of art.
They all saw something on this stage, on this evening, that at least concerned them. And that's already a start.
