Stage Pictures

Great
painters like
Pieter Bruegel the Elder,
Hieronymus Bosch, Giotto di Bondone
and many others set vice and virtue before the eye —
warning by contrast, making excess grotesque
and restraint luminous.
In this book
you will find the illustrations,
based on the historical gravures, that keep their
compositions but reappeared: the same fourteen figures
bones structure, but their looks now
are drifted.
What have been always human vices –
In nowadays, look more attractive and harmless;
What have been always virtues seem now
more medieval and archaic.
Across mapped images,
sung-poem, music score, guitar chords,
and recorded beautiful music performance,
each inversion is rendered in parallel —
the old moral grammar intact,
while the meaning
is reversed.
