Born near Dublin in 1906, Samuel Beckett is one of the most important writers of the 20th Century. He lived in London and Paris and wrote in both English and French. In short, I find his novels and plays filled with hilarious despair and extremely visual. I can see every scene -the street or road, the landscape, the characters - all in a rich panorama.
If we are able to make this exhibition a reality, I have a vision for the Opening Night: dark gallery, pin spots on the two dozen or so paintings, an actor in the corner continuously reading from Beckett's works, a few props around - a bicycle, a crutch, a worn valise. All those involved in the show, plus friends, dressed in black wearing black bowlers.
I need and welcome your COMMENTS and SUGGESTIONS: How to reach Beckett fans in the USA and Europe; how to promote the exhibit to the general public and, your thoughts for additional paintings. At the moment I'm working on "Krapp's Last Tape", "Play", "Happy Days" and, of course, "Waiting for Godot".
