Pier Paolo Pasolini: a City Wide Celebration of His Genius Published on Iitaly.Org ( Pier Paolo Pasolini: a City Wide Celebration of His Genius Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) Pier Paolo Pasolini: a City Wide Celebration of His Genius Natasha Lerdera (December 19, 2012) MoMA and Cinecittà Luce celebrate the enduring influence of Italian filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini with a comprehensive retrospective of his cinematic works. The program is accompanied by side events Retrospective @ MoMA: December 13, 2012–January 5, 2013. More than two decades after its 1990 retrospective of Pier Paolo Pasolini, MoMA once again joins with Cinecittà Luce and Fondo Pier Paolo Pasolini/Cineteca di Bologna to present a full retrospective of Pasolini’s cinematic output. Many of these celebrated films will be shown in recently restored versions, and all are presented in newly struck prints. Much of this painstaking restoration work was performed by Cineteca di Bologna, Page 1 of 6 Pier Paolo Pasolini: a City Wide Celebration of His Genius Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) alongside several of Pasolini’s former collaborators. Pasolini’s cinematic legacy is distinguished by an unerring eye for cinematic composition and tone, and a stylistic ease within a variety of genres—many of which he reworked to his own purposes, and all of which he invested with his distinctive touch. Yet it is Pasolini’s unique genius for creating images that evoke the inner truths of his own brief life that truly sets his films apart—and entices new generations of cinephiles to explore his work. Pasolini’s cinematic works roughly correspond to four periods in the socially and politically committed artist’s life. The National Popular Cinema commenced with his debut, Accattone (1961), which immediately made a name for him as a filmmaker of prodigious talent and fury. This was followed by Mamma Roma and a number of episodic comic films containing warm, honest portraits of people living on the fringes of society, culminating in the masterful The Gospel According to Matthew. Marking him as a provocative thinker and audacious artist with an uncompromising vision, Pasolini’s middle period, often termed The Unpopular Cinema, features excoriating depictions of the bourgeoisie that lend a passionate immediacy to films like Teorema, Porcile, and a modern interpretation of Medea. The Trilogy of Life—The Decameron, The Canterbury Tales, and Arabian Nights—produced between 1971 and 1974, is a triumphant reinterpretation of classic tales and fables that retain their universality despite being interpreted by thoroughly modern means. As Pasolini himself noted, he focused on the past precisely because it reflects the present most profoundly. Sometimes referred to as The Abjuration of the Trilogy of Life, the director’s utterly despairing final film, Salò or the 120 Days of Sodom, was held up for years due to censorship issues, and it remains a shockingly raw and profoundly disconcerting experience. Salò was completed in 1975, the year of Pasolini’s mysterious murder. A series of supplemental events pay tribute to Pasolini’s multifaceted career. MoMA PS1 hosts two programs: a day of performances inspired by Pasolini (this event has already taken place) and an installation comprising three of Pasolini’s films screening continuously throughout the run of the retrospective (details to follow). A roundtable discussion about his artistic legacy took place at Casa Italiana Zerilli Marimò at New York University; a selection of Pasolini’s paintings and drawings is exhibited at Location One; and a seminar hosted by the Italian Cultural Institute titles Pasolini’s Languages launched a new publication featuring materials drawn from Pasolini’s archives.

Directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. With Anna Magnani, Ettore Garofolo, Franco Citti. “Arguably in Mamma Roma the sub-proletarian world provides not only the subject matter but the actual subject of the film, for the story hinges on the attempts of Mamma Roma, an ex-prostitute, to ‘go straight’ and to provide a respectable petty bourgeois existence in which her adolescent son can grow up. The attempts fail and the respectable dream evaporates and, in a sense, there is a moral in this—the first statement by Pasolini of what is to become a recurrent theme: the un-livability of the modern bourgeois and petty-bourgeois world” (G.

With Silvana Mangano, Massimo Girotti, Terence Stamp, Anne Wiazemsky. “His film is a parable, seductively ambiguous and yet set forth with the calm certitude of a geometrical theorem: if five members of a wealthy industrialist’s household encounter God, five specific things will happen to them in consequence of their encounter.” (Joseph Morgenstern, Newsweek, May 5, 1969).

Directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. “Sana’a, like all of the Third World for Pasolini, was two things, an intact, sublimely beautiful medieval Arab city of the past, and a corrupted, degraded city being developed in the present. In 1971, Pasolini made [this] film in the form of a plea to UNESCO to save Sana’a from the destruction of modernization” (Sam Rohdie, The Passion of Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1995).

Directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. With Franco Citti, Ninetto Davoli, Silvana Mangano. “Taking 10 tales out of the 100 in Boccaccio’s Decameron, Pasolini has created one of the most beautiful, turbulent, and uproarious panoramas of early Renaissance life ever put on film. It is also one of the most obscene, if obscene defines something that is offensive to ordinary concepts of chastity, delicacy, and decency, although I’d hardly call the film offensive to morals” (Vincent Canby, The New York Times, December 9, 1971).

Marco Bellocchio i Bernardo Bertolucci van recollir l’herència de Pier Paolo Pasolini per aixecar la bandera del Nou Cinema italià dels seixanta amb I pugni in tasca i Prima della rivoluzione com a vaixells insígnia. Des de llavors, l’obra de Bellocchio s’ha desenvolupat a cavall entre la política i la psicoanàlisi, des d’un cinema militant que ha evolucionat cap a postures més reflexives fins a la solució de complexos edípics sense necessitat de matar la mare per buscar models universals en els clàssics de la literatura. La retrospectiva, tan àmplia com hem pogut en funció de la disponibilitat d’unes còpies d’accés gens fàcil, arrenca aquest mes amb sis llargmetratges que inclouen des de les històriques denúncies de l’autoritarisme d’I pugni in tasca, Sbatti il mostro in prima pagina i Nel nome del padre fins a les exploracions psicoanalítiques de l’erotisme a Il diavolo in corpo i La condanna o la sublim interpretació de Marcello Mastroianni del pirandellià Enrico IV.

  • Claretta E Benito, Amanti Burattini a Salò
    Claretta e Benito, amanti burattini a Salò - Gianfranco Capitta, LASTRA A SIGNA,14.11.2015 A teatro. Massimo Sgorbani, drammaturgo lombardo, autore di Arcitaliani, che racconta con cura i giorni dell'infausta repubbica sociale mescolando l'universo ideologico e visionario di Pasolini Pasolini ormai può essere, oltre che un piacere letterario «in proprio», anche punto di partenza per nuove creatività, come capita del resto a tutti i grandi classici. Massimo Sgorbani, puntuto drammaturgo lombardo (la sua ultima trilogia era dedicata alla «donne» di Hitler), parla questa volta insieme di un periodo storico e di noi oggi. Usa le cronache della fine della seconda guerra mondiale, e luniverso ideologico e visionario di Pasolini. Usa la satira e il cabaret, il balletto e il circo, il dramma borghese e la pochade. Tutto mescolato e instancabilmente sovrapposto, per costituire una amarissima quanto ridicola «commedia allitaliana». Anzi forse proprio una commedia sullItalia, di ieri, e pericolosamente anche di oggi. In cui si avverano e degenerano, incontrollati, visioni e incubi pasoliniani, che li aveva organizzati nei minuetti atroci del suo ultimo film, uscito postumo e quasi testamentario, Salò-Sade. Arcitaliani, o le seicento giornate di Salò è il titolo dellopera, che con cura millimetrica racconta i giorni dellinfausta repubblica sociale in cui si avvita tragicamente questo paese. Ma a raccontarcela sono i due «amanti perduti» Claretta e Benito (qui ridotto a Ben della retorica più sdata), impersonati da due attori/burattini (lei è Giusi Merli ormai icona santona della Grande bellezza) che si avviano con fatale incoscienza, come in un film di telefoni bianchi, verso il piazzale Loreto dellintera nazione.

Pier Paolo Pasolini, “L’ambiguità” This paper examines the relationship between “creators” (gods and poets) and their creations in the poem “Once at mid-day in late spring” (“Num meio-dia de fim de primavera”) by the Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa (1888–1935)—but ostensibly authored by Alberto Caeiro, one of the numerous fictional heteronyms through which Pessoa published entire works in verse and prose—and Pier Paolo Pasolini’s short film,La ricotta (1963). I focus in particular on Pessoa and Pasolini’s displacement of a divine subject onto a human object and of creative authority onto secondary authors. Secondly, I consider the playfulness inherent in the irreverent rejection of the institutionalization of artistic and religious creation in the poem and the film, as well as the use of bucolic settings that revive a kind of pre-historical, pre-Christian religiosity in a landscape that is nonetheless distinct from traditional “pastoral” modes due to the constant interruption of modern systems of production and representation.

  • The Soundscape of Pier Paolo Pasolini's the Gospel According To
    Nicola Martellozzo The Soundscape of Pier Paolo Pasolini’s The Gospel According to St. Matthew (1964) ABSTRACT Il Vangelo secondo Matteo (The Gospel According to St. Matthew, IT/FR 1964), by the Italian film director Pier Paolo Pasolini, is one of the most interesting and widely acclaimed film representations of the life of Jesus. Its reception in the Catholic world has reflected the alternating fortunes of Pasolini himself, but over the years critics have come to fully appreciate its merits. While the director made faithful use of the dialogue in the Gospel, he constructed a new – but plausible – imagination, or “architecture of reality”, based on an intertextual code with intersecting pictorial, architectural, biblical and sound references. This essay aims in particular to employ a semiotic approach to an- alyse the musical motifs in the film and the way in which they convey precise meanings and values to the viewer about the figure and life of Jesus. Songs and musical compo- sitions are leitmotifs that punctuate the narrative, interweaving with the visual compo- nent to form a full-blown language in its own right. KEYWORDS Pier Paolo Pasolini; The Gospel According to St. Matthew; Musical Leitmotifs; Intertex- tuality; Audio-visual Syntax BIOGRAPHY Nicola Martellozzo graduated from the University of Bologna with a degree in cultural anthropology and ethnology. The author of an essay on the phenomenology of religious conversion (2015), he has presented papers at various specialist conferences (Italian Society of Medical Anthropology 2018; Italian Society of Cultural Anthropology 2018; Italian Society of Applied Anthropology; Italian National Professional Association of An- thropologist 2018).

  • Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1968)
    Christel Taillibert Théorème (Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1968) Né en 1922, Pier Paolo Pasolini n'a cessé tout au long de sa vie de fustiger la société, ses conservatismes, ses hypocrisies et ses impostures. A la fois poète, essayiste, romancier et cinéaste, son art sera avant tout l'expression d'un être en souffrance, en rage contre un système dans lequel il ne se reconnaîtra jamais et qui jamais ne l'acceptera. De remous en véritables scandales, aucun de ses films ne laisse indifférent. Que ce soit en termes moraux, religieux ou politiques, Pasolini endure tout au long de sa carrière les foudres de ses - nombreux - détracteurs. Théorème, œuvre polysémique signée en 1968, est particulièrement symptomatique des passions que ses films étaient capables de déchaîner à l'époque. Générique Scénario, dialogue, réalisation : Pier Paolo Pasolini D'après le roman de Pier Paolo Pasolini, "Teorema" (Garzanti Editore, 1968) Interprétation : Terence Stamp (le visiteur), Massimo Girotti (Paolo, le père), Silvana Mangano (Lucia, la mère), Anne Wiazemsky (Odetta, la fille), Andres José Cruz (Pietro, le fils), Laura Betti (Emilia, la servante), Ninetto Davoli (Angiolino, le messager), Susanna Pasolini (la paysanne) Image : Giuseppe Ruzzolini (Eastmancolor) Décors : Luciano Puccini Costumes : Marcella De Machis Effets spéciaux : Goffredo Roccheti Montage : Nino Baragli Musique : Ennio Morricone et extraits du Requiem de Mozart Production : Aetos Film Producteurs : Franco Rossellini, Manolo Bolognini Directeur de production : Paolo Frasca Distribution : Coline / Planfilm Durée : 98 mn Résumé Un jeune homme aussi charmeur que silencieux débarque un beau jour dans une famille bourgeoise de Milan.

  • Moma and LUCE CINECITTÀ CELEBRATE the ENDURING INFLUENCE of ITALIAN FILMMAKER PIER PAOLO PASOLINI with a COMPREHENSIVE RETROSPECTIVE of HIS CINEMATIC WORKS
    MoMA AND LUCE CINECITTÀ CELEBRATE THE ENDURING INFLUENCE OF ITALIAN FILMMAKER PIER PAOLO PASOLINI WITH A COMPREHENSIVE RETROSPECTIVE OF HIS CINEMATIC WORKS Accompanying Events include an Evening of Recital at MoMA; Programs of Performances and Film Installations at MoMA PS1; a Roundtable Discussion, Book Launch and Seminar, and Gallery Show in New York Pier Paolo Pasolini December 13, 2012–January 5, 2013 The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters NEW YORK, December 12, 2012—The Museum of Modern Art, Luce Cinecittà, and Fondo Pier Paolo Pasolini/Cineteca di Bologna present Pier Paolo Pasolini, a full retrospective celebrating the filmmaker’s cinematic output, from December 13, 2012 through January 5, 2013, in The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters. Pasolini’s film legacy is distinguished by an unerring eye for cinematic composition and tone, and a stylistic ease within a variety of genres—many of which he reworked to his own purposes, and all of which he invested with his distinctive touch. Yet, it is Pasolini’s unique genius for creating images that evoke the inner truths of his own brief life that truly distinguish his films. This comprehensive retrospective presents Pasolini’s celebrated films with newly struck prints by Luce Cinecittà after a careful work of two years, many shown in recently restored versions. The exhibition is organized by Jytte Jensen, Curator, Department of Film, The Museum of Modern Art, and by Camilla Cormanni and Paola Ruggiero, Luce Cinecittà; with Roberto Chiesi, Fondo Pier Paolo Pasolini/Cineteca di Bologna; and Graziella Chiarcossi. Pasolini’s (b. Bologna, 1922-1975) cinematic works roughly correspond to four periods in the socially and politically committed artist’s life.
