Denhoff Michael - Traumbuch Eines Gefangenen 4. Stre

Facts Denhoff's diverse "settings" transmute artistic expression from one medium to another. It is these intermediate realms between the arts which he exploits, the expressive possibilities of associations and translations. Perhaps this is nowhere more evident than in his cycle "Traumbuch eines Gefangenen" (Dream Book of a Prisoner), after texts by Horst Bienek. The subtitle alone - "oratorical scenes" - suggests an historical ambience which underscores the work's scope. For death, torture and imprisonment are part of past and present reality.
