On Saturday I went to see REVELATION Agustina Gatto-dir: Tatiana Sandoval (Saturday 20.30 NoAvestruz, 6956 -4777 Humboldt 1857) God is a monologue
In my review of God's Wrath On the middle of March (click here ) I gave wrong idea that "at present few works are addressed, relate, announce or discuss God." In that context from which he spoke, yet could argue that thought, but if after this review came from The Anatomist , then this of Revelation, it is clear that the reference to the God of our religions touches almost obsession -perhaps not all of our theater, but at least in this blog. In Revelation , Agustina Gatto, the God theme and the huge absence is installed from the beginning, from the enhanced effectiveness of prayer, which is one of the classic forms of monologue, from which the text-book opens way theological waters by an aesthetic that will lead to generic forms of religion, prayer, parable and allegory.
God is a way of speaking (or forms of religion Part II (Part One in "On The Anatomist" previous review)
We said already in the previous review that "Rosa Mystica in disorders meat (you can read reviews of these works on this blog), the religious issue is political and social. In The Anatomist is public and sexual, in terms of the most famous political intervention of religion on the female body. " In Revelation , she says, "God is a relationship", which involves us in "the labyrinths of our literary and religious imagery," says the director. From my point of view, the consummation of God and religion in this work is the word: how can (or impossible) to speak here and now of the intima-true-religion or sincere.

There foreshadowed, in a different tone and with other figures, this revelation .
allegorical thinking
Unlike that work, this is not mythical, it is religious, and lay hold with credit to prayer and the parable, but, as noted also, in the allegory. Allegory, medieval battle that, if you like conceptual, between good and evil presented in symbolic figures on a platform or stage, has its beauty but also its risks, and these are, I think, underscored by the setting: the dog grudge saved as a dramatic figure in the remarkable scene of the fight, but perhaps fascination sheep and horse / mare miracle, and the resonances desert prophets, John to come, the water of baptism and the flight, perhaps, he said, intending to mean one that has been said and slides, dissatisfied , between the subtle patterns of events.
