Turkish blogs are a joy and today is no exception as there is a line of great interest for the dramatist playwright from
Istanbul Turkey. which is ... Istanbul Biennial 11th International Exhibition is on
September 12 - November 8 2009 and is curated by:
What How and for Whom/WHM and it is concerned with The Threepenny Opera of 1928 by Bertolt Brecht in collaboration with Elizabeth Hauptmann and Kurt Weill and there is a very long list of artists!
One line still rings with a candour that is full of vigour ..
/a criminal is a bourgeoise and a bourgeoise is a criminal/
What Keeps Mankind Alive? Is the Title referred herein Denn Woron lebt der Mensch?
As a lover of Drama I would draw attention to where there were connections made about the original work penned by John Gay - The Beggar's Opera in 1728 and Brecht and Weil wrote this production in 1928 on the 200th anniversary of the original version! Highly engaging and entertaining with a satiric twist ... hard work!
