Gaetano Liberti

ON THE AIR DOCUMENT

Doc. expérimental | hdv | couleur et n&b | 27:50 | Italie | 2012

The starting point of this work is a single image, or rather, multiple images from the same moment: the Annunciation. The image which represents the moment of the Annunciation is a map. The map was used as a guide to construct the space. A single space that contains two places: a room in a film and a waiting room. The frame of projection and the sound constantly connects these two places and time itself. Light-air-time. A boy who lives in two levels connected by a frame discovers the image of himself through the sounds that come from another place. ON THE AIR DOCUMENT* is a document, a video transcription, a visual and sound trace that stands as a document of the project ON THE AIR ? The Annunciation. Project for a waiting room (installation and videowork).**

Gaetano Liberti (1983). In 2004, after finishing the Arts School in Trento, he attends the High Training Course for the Actor conducted by Cesare Ronconi (Teatro Valdoca), and he begins a personal search on the use of the body, physical movement, voice and sound. From 2005 to 2008 he works as actor for Teatro Valdoca in Landscape with broken brother and in special projects. In 2006 he works as actor for Motus in A place [that again]. Since 2006 he is working with the artistic research group Opera. In 2005 he created brailleway, an identity by which he produces filmworks, performances, installations and research on new devices. He collaborates and has worked with various contemporary realities in the italian and international theatre and the artistic panorama. At the moment part of his investigation focuses on the sound, the boundaries of the cinema-device, the remembrance, the frame and the off-screen.
