JOYCE AND
CINEMA, A POSSIBLE WORLD
At 5.30pm in the
Veruda hall in Palazzo Costanzi there were many who
were rushed to help the opening of the multimedia exhibition
"Trieste, James Joyce and the Cinema: A History of Possible Worlds".
The curator of the exposition Erik Schneider, the creator of the project
John McCourt with Elisabetta d’Erme, the director of
CMSA of the City of Trieste Adriano Dugulin, the Councillor of
Culture of the City of Trieste Massimo Greco and the Director of Alpe
Adria Cinema Annamaria Percavassi, introduced the event illustrating the
inspiring thoughts and the various stages pathed for its realization.
Scholars,
literary figures, filmmakers and many who were just curious attended
with interest the presentation of the way of an exhibition that,
through unpublished documents and precious relics, on the one hand
presents the antique roots of the truth of Triestine Cinema and on
the other hand reveals a rarely noted facet of the Irish writer: the
link between James Joyce and Cinema. The relationship between Joyce
and Trieste is what is ascertained, less well known is that the
author supported the Triestine entrepreneurs in the opening of the
Cinema Volta, the first cinematographic hall in Ireland.
The presence of
a multimedia space dedicated to the "animated
photographs" of the period and to the visual documents of the life
and works of the Irish author enrich the exposition with a fresh
touch of modernity.
In
Cinema Ariston at 9pm, unfolded in collaboration with the
British Film Institute "An Evening at the Cinema Volta".
A special performance care of Paolo Venier who used a worthwhile
original projector from the period, accompanied by the notes from
the piano of Carlo Moser. A true and evocative voyage in time
through images and sounds pertaining to the early 1900s...
