Yet they are the witness holding the highest presence of apocrypha. Such legends, in catechistic or seminary childhood, dig deep furrows in young men's imagination, fomented by a religious agitation which blends mysticism and terror. Magdalena is a study on apocrypha, popular traditions and tales falseness. It is dedicated to Federico Fellini, Pier Paolo Pasolini and to their glance on reality. The structure of these installations has been thought to reproduce the oneiric vision of a dream; therefore its syntax has not been set with the rules of an exposition. Images, fantasies, perversions, fears, are things that mean nothing at all. An image, precisely... a dream... Foundation notes Some days ago I happened to see by chance an old interview made to Pasolini by enzo Biagi. Every question was about the poet's religiosity. Pasolini explained that, to the poet's eyes, or maybe to his eyes, the world kept appearing as a miraculous architecture; and that, for that reason, without will of artefaction, the world was enriched by that religious sense, so evident in his movies. I was working at my "Devozioni" and I got stuck between historical references, legends, heresies or coherences. As if I had something to reproduce. As a matter of fact "Devozioni" does not re-produce anything. Nothing at all. My "Devozioni" are an effort to see and to recognize. That's it. It's just the way I see the world, with the same astonishment I had when I was young and frightened by the sky and god's judgement. When I felt like Alesa Karamazof. My devozioni are what I see. Here there's all my effort to be myself, throughout the daily attacks carried out by the world of others, by the unconscious armies, the world of new fascisms, as Pasolini called it. That's why I dedicate Magdalena to him and Giulietta Masina, who keep teaching me much more than our "theatre people" will do in six hundred lives. And once more I thank Bettina Rheims for giving me fearlessness, and Andrej Tarkowskij for helping me to understand that a man has a lot of lives and therefore he must also have a lot of cards to play, being faithful to his own game. And, finally, I give all my solidarity to Jerzy Grotowsky, who, despite all, kept going.
