Two pairs of wooden recliners marked by time and weather, placed inside an iron, wood and canvas structure, a small movie theatre/room where Carl Theodor Dreyer’s Gertrud was projected. Above them, the same number of chairs, laid out evenly, descend from the ceiling, upside down, turned toward the screen like a doppelganger of the small room below. The images of the black-and-white film, the Danish director’s final work, linger on the characters’ faces, capturing gazes that do not meet, irreconcilable lives running in parallel. The projection takes place in a space suspended between life and its double, alluding to the dimension that transcends it. Created in 2006 as a site-specific installation for the ‘Cielo vicino’ exhibition (inv. 662), Piccolo Cinema was revived as a stand-alone work in 2007 as part of the Inverosimile installation (inv. 986).
