23 Tableaux Vivants from Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio masterpieces

The “Tableaux Vivants” transports the viewer into a magic world, where pictorial art and theater art gradually overlap to match perfectly. This technique, popular in eighteenth-century, has been recovered because of the intuition and sensitivity of Ludovica Rambelli, director of Malatheatre Theater Company. After her death, the company Ludovica Rambelli Theater committed to ensure that her research is not lost again.

Based on the “tableaux vivants” technique, La Conversione di un Cavallo is a work of great visual impact and yet of extreme simplicity. Before the viewers ‘eyes twenty-three of the best Caravaggio’s canvasses are composed by the actors’ bodies with the help of some minimal elements only, such as draped fabrics of varied colours and texture and other everyday objects. Just one stream of light brightens up the scene, working as an imaginary frame. The changes are all “en plain air” and Rhythmically punctuated by Mozart, Bach, Vivaldi and Sibelius’ musics.
