<strong>REALITY</strong><br />
new piece 2012<br />
by Daria Deflorian and Antonio Tagliarini
We found out about the story of Janina Turek and her diaries in March 2010 through the publication<br />
of an excerpt of the reportage by Mariusz Szczygiel in the newspaper La Repubblica . After deciding<br />
to start working from this story we contacted the Szczygiel through the italian publisher Nottetempo,<br />
and he gave us permission to use his text to develop our own original play.<br />
When in December 2010 Andrea Nanni, director of Festival Inequilibrio/Armunia, has given us the<br />
support for our project, proposing the premiere in July 2012, the time in front of us seemed very<br />
long and almost ‘dangerous’. Could we do other things and and pick up the thread of Reality later? Or<br />
present preparatory studies in the meantime? Prepare the piece immediately and leave it sitting for one<br />
year? Interesting questions, questions about the contemporary condition of creation in Italy, even<br />
more urgent in a time of crisis like the one that our society is going through.<br />
Project Reality shows our attempt to pursue the path in the middle, a set of finished objects but<br />
deeply interconnected. Meet the audience is our job. It charge us, motivates us, reports errors, makes<br />
us grow in our thoughts and forms.<br />

Reality is only a possibility, weak and fragile as all possibilities. (William Burroughs)<br />
Reality, reality without show, without audience. To be anonymous and unique. Special and trivial. To have the<br />
daily as a horizon. Like Janina Turek, polish woman that for 50 years wrote, in a detailed way, the facts of her life:<br />
how many phone calls she got at home and who had called her (38.196); where and who she met by chance and<br />
to whom she said “Good-morning” (23.397); how many meeting she had (1.922); how many presents she gave,<br />
to whom and what kind (5.817); how many time she played domino (19); how many times she went to the theatre<br />
(110); how many TV shows she had seen (70.042). 748 notebooks found after she died in 2000 by her unaware<br />
and shocked daughter.<br />
Mariusz Szczygieł (author of one of the most surprising history books in the last years, “Gottland”) writes in the<br />
reportage where we got to discover this story ”Always something happens in the daily routine. We hurry in<br />
endless litle tasks without expect it to leave traces in our memory and even less in the memory of the others.<br />
Our actions are not in fact made to be remembered but by need. Over time, any effort undertaken in our daily<br />
chores is destined to oblivion. Janina Turek chose the daily, everything that is unnoticed, as her object of<br />
observation.” It would not be a surprise if this would be the choice of a visual artist like Sophie Calle, or there is<br />
nothing different from the works of art imagined by Michel Houellbecq in his last book “ La Carte et le Territoire”<br />
where the main character spends 15 years filming casual details of the foliage around his house. What gives a<br />
strange thrill in the flow of life of this anonymous housewife of Krakow is that is not a work of art, it is not an<br />
intellectual paradox and it was not destined to an audience. From her own personal choice she had intuitively<br />
started to ennoble the daily tam tam itself. Why?<br />
In 2008 for Rewind, homage to Cafè Müller by Pina Bausch” we had as an object the show of the german<br />
choreographer, in the next year we focussed the work “From a to d and back again” around “The philosophy of<br />
Andy Warhol”. For us to start from this colossal and mestirious work that are the notebooks of Janina Turek is a<br />
natural step to make. It is not about doing a mise-en-scene or a theatrical story about her, but to dialogue<br />
between what we know and not know about Janina and to create a series of short-circuits between us and her<br />
and between us and the audiance around the preception of what is reality.
