Peter Greenaway

100 drawings of the mole


  • Silvana
  • by Domenico De Gaetano
The pages of this book are a tribute to the symbolic monument of Turin by one of the most innovating masters of European cinema, Peter Greenaway. His drawings are swift sketches made in different parts of the world between 2001 and 2002, while he was in an airport waiting room or working in his studio in Amsterdam. Here the Mole is transfigured in a playful, grotesque, and irreverent way, transforming itself into a clipper ship, a Chinese pagoda, a church, a light bulb, an industrial site with chimney.

Description

The pages of this book are a tribute to the symbolic monument of Turin by one of the most innovating masters of European cinema, Peter Greenaway. His drawings are swift sketches made in different parts of the world between 2001 and 2002, while he was in an airport waiting room or working in his studio in Amsterdam. Here the Mole is transfigured in a playful, grotesque, and irreverent way, transforming itself into a clipper ship, a Chinese pagoda, a church, a light bulb, an industrial site with chimney.

The range of techniques and materials is very wide: some drawings are simple pencil sketches on pieces of white paper, others are precious watercolors, still others tiny profiles on geographical maps, post-its, faded shopping receipts, pages of newspapers and magazines.
