Filippos Tsitsopoulos. PAPAY GYRO NIGHTS ART FESTIVAL 2012. papa westray. orkney

The madrigal of the explosion of the wise whale videos is a video monologue that is presented with four "actors performing projectors" and we can describe it as Video theatre installation.
The figure with the ears and the crabs start the function, and so begins as your indicated text.
The actor's is the artist himself.
Is quite innovative because he film himself performing and record monologues that becomes dialogues due to the two screens projections, creating Video theatre.
The Madrigal of the Explosion of the Wise Whale holds the idea that art can be created from a fictional reality and try to build this reality afterwards in a second level of understanding, creates the "lamentations of a daily poetic life", modern theatrical lamentations, dealing with paradox, Madrigal is not a Modern form of song but it can be modern and as an art fort can be translated to theatre, to "Home Domestic Theatre of the Daily Life", when quotidian life is transformed to Tragedy.

Filippos Tsitsopoulos was born 1967 in Athens, and studied Fine Arts at Aristotelion University. Now a resident of Madrid his doctoral studies have explored the theme of ‘Irony In Art’. Currently in the employ of The Prado Museum Madrid, Tsitsopoulos area is Education In Art History and workshops. "Present in Tsitsopoulos work is a mix of possibilities. Joy, pleasure, political identity, conformism and rebellion, masked and overexposed, combined with spirituality and sensuality. Theatrical process is employed, and the artist (Tsitsopoulos) becomes similar to the painter. New possibilities emerge, as theatre and film become the canvas for his work.

About my artwork:
The subject of his creative exploration is failed philosophical theories. Failure ideals: in music, and composers’… failure ideals also in the theatre. Plays with a tragic elemental edge and meaning, and a forgotten end, serve as inspiration to much of Tsitsopoulos work. These themes are evident in his works Goya and Rodin, Berlin 2005 and 2007, at the Alten National Galerie and Neuen National Galerie. Under Jannis Markopoulos who create Phylosophy Art. Tsitsopoulos exhibited at the Liverpool Biennial, A Foundation 2004, at FACT,and other shows in England, as well as In CASA ENCENDIDA and CIRCULO DE BELLAS ARTES 2004 2007 among others.He is working with Batagianni gallery Athens-http://www.batagiannigallery.com/ Dolores de Sierra Madrid- Begoña Malone Madrid- Atm Altamira Gijon.
