To everyone saying "It doesn't work anymore!", make sure you enable "file://" access for viewing local PDF's. You can find this in the extension settings, under "Allow access to file URLs". Absolute banger of an extension, really useful and significantly enhances my personal research experience =)

Per fortuna sto iniziando un percorso in un ambito che, in realtà, mi fa sentire a mio agio. Mi piacerebbe poter scrivere in modo del tutto spontaneo ciò che mi passa per la mente, ma so che questi spazi sono pensati per descrivere e dimostrare consapevolezza in ambito formativo e accademico. Comincio quindi dicendo che il mio campo è, per fortuna, l’arte scenica, una presenza costante nella mia vita da oltre vent’anni. Oggi posso dire di essere diventata esperta nel lavoro sul corpo dell’attore e dell’attrice, grazie a diverse metodologie che mi permettono di perseguire questo meraviglioso obiettivo: valorizzare il linguaggio corporeo dell’artista e riconoscerlo come elemento centrale e imprescindibile nella creazione scenica. Mi preme, inoltre, riconoscere le metodologie che hanno segnato in modo decisivo la mia formazione artistica e trasformato il mio approccio alla scena. Tra queste, il lavoro di Jerzy Grotowski, con la sua ricerca sul “teatro povero” e sulla verità dell’attore; le sperimentazioni biomeccaniche di Vsevolod Mejerchol’d; il rigore fisico e vocale del Metodo Suzuki; la dimensione performativa di Marina Abramović, capace di connettere corpo, resistenza e presenza; l’improvvisazione creativa di Keith Johnstone; e l’approccio pedagogico e corporeo di Jacques Lecoq. Ciascuno di questi maestri e delle loro tecniche ha contribuito ad ampliare la mia visione del teatro, arricchendo il mio bagaglio espressivo e metodologico.
