The first how-to literary and process dramaturgy guide. Full of practical exercises, questions, and ways to approach dramaturgical thinking.

1000 anos de alegrias e tristezas: Memórias
by Ai WeiweiAS MEMÓRIAS DE AI WEIWEI, UM DOS MAIS IMPORTANTES ARTISTAS E ATIVISTAS DA ACTUALIDADE Ambicioso e intimista, 1000 ANOS DE ALEGRIAS E TRISTEZAS oferece-nos um conhecimento profundo das várias forças que fizeram da China o que ela é hoje e é, ao mesmo tempo, um alerta para a necessidade urgente de proteger a liberdade de expressão. Em 1000 ANOS DE ALEGRIAS E TRISTEZAS, Ai Weiwei oferece-nos uma descrição impressionante da China dos últimos 1000 anos ao mesmo tempo que reflecte sobre o seu processo artístico. Além de explorar as origens da sua criatividade fora de série e das suas apaixonadas convicções políticas, Weiwei revela ainda a história do seu pai, Ai Qing, outrora o poeta mais influente da China e companheiro próximo e íntimo de Mao Tsé-Tung. Durante a Revolução Cultural Chinesa, Ai Qing foi considerado de direita e condenado a trabalhos forçados. Toda a sua família, incluindo o filho, foi desterrada para uma parte remota e desolada do país a que chamavam «Pequena Sibéria». Nas suas memórias, Weiwei descreve uma infância no exílio e conta-nos a difícil decisão de abandonar a família para ir estudar Arte nos Estados Unidos, onde se tornou amigo de Allen Ginsberg e encontrou em Marcel Duchamp e Andy Warhol uma inspiração. Com honestidade e sageza, descreve o seu regresso à China e a sua ascensão de artista desconhecido a estrela da cena artística internacional e activista pelos direitos humanos - sem esquecer a forma como o seu trabalho tem sido moldado pela vivência sob um regime totalitário. As esculturas e instalações de Ai Weiwei já foram vistas por milhões de pessoas em todo o mundo e um dos seus feitos arquitectónicos inclui a sua contribuição no desenho do Estádio Olímpico "Ninho de Pássaro", em Pequim. O seu activismo político pô-lo desde cedo na mira das autoridades chineses, o que culminou numa detenção secreta em 2011 e que viria a terminar, ao fim de alguns meses, numa libertação sem qualquer queixa formal apresentada. Ambicioso e intimista, 1000 ANOS DE ALEGRIAS E TRISTEZAS oferece-nos um conhecimento profundo das várias forças que fizeram da China o que ela é hoje e é, ao mesmo tempo, um alerta para a necessidade urgente de proteger a liberdade de expressão.
