1977 2018 Mario Martone Museo Madre by Mario MartoneMadre - Donnaregina Contemporary Art Museum
The first retrospective dedicated to the Neapolitan director Mario Martone, on the occasion of the fortieth anniversary of his artistic career.
Through the editing of unreleased documents and films, archival footages, film cuts and takes of theatrical performances, Martone’s artistic experience is presented according to an evocative and non-chronological order, in which all the elements that tell about the story of the director coexist in a horizontal relationship that is contemporary in itself.

Projected simultaneously on four screens in the Re_PUBBLICA Madre Gallery, the film-flow reelaborates the “mise-en-scène” of a theatrical performance realized by Martone in 1986, “Ritorno ad Alphaville”, inspired by Jean-Luc Godard’s film, recreating its circular trend and the simultaneous vision by the public.

The film “Capri-Revolution”, presented by Martone in the autumn of 2018, is inspired by the artwork “We Are the Revolution”, that the German artist Joseph Beuys produced in 1971 in Anacapri, and that is now part of Madre museum’s collection.
