The Master's studio is meticulosly reproduced...
The front-cover of "89 Seconds At Alcazar"...
Annotations for the choreography. Clue: "V." means Velazquez...
The video-screen shows the space that was once the stage for a painting...
I told the Right Hounorable Reader about Ms. Sussman before. She had the brilliant idea of imagining the "characters" in "Las Meninas" moving in three-dimensional space in two-dimensional video up to the sacred snap-shot immortalized by Velazquez in his painting. I just bought a book about that video/performance-art stunt. It adds a sense of the fourth dimension (time) in one's enjoyment of that image. Next time the Right Honourable Reader goes to Prado he will understand what this blogger of yours means...
