SPECIFICITY OF EUROPEAN THEATRE DIRECTING OF THE FLEMISH WAVE: METAPHORICAL IMAGES LUK PERCEVAL

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to reveal the peculiarities of the creative activity of one of the leading representatives of theatre directing of the "Flemish wave" Luk Perceval. Research methodology. The analytical method, the method of typological, art history, genre-stylistic, and figurative-stylistic analysis was used, thanks to which the author's approaches and the methodology of L. Perceval's direction were revealed and structured, as well as the method of theoretical generalisation. Scientific novelty. The creative activity of one of the leading directors of the European theatre at the end of the 20th century and the first two decades of the 21st century was studied. L. Perceval; the aesthetics of L. Perceval's theatrical direction are analysed through the prism of the concept of post-dramatic theatre; metaphorical images and their place in the visual text of the play are considered, using the example of the productions of "Othello" by W. Shakespeare and "Black-Yellow-Red Trilogy: Journey to the European Heart of Darkness" (alternative name "Belgium Sorrow") by S. Khin. Conclusions. Theatrical direction of L. Perceval, whose artistic thinking was formed in the atmosphere of Flemish theatre culture and reflects all its features, is characterised by an active search for exquisite symbolic forms of the embodiment of the highest unity of all living things. The director interprets modernity through the prism of the past, makes an attempt to highlight the deep contradictions of the modern socio-cultural space in the process of creating a system of creative reflections, the complex play of aesthetics of modern post-dramatic theatre and generalising various cultural layers and topics relevant to people of the 21st century in comprehensive metaphors. L. Perceval comprehends the problems of place and time, nature, life, freedom, independence, the complexities of life and natural contradictions, phenomena and tragedies that strike a person. The director expresses his own attitude, inner experiences and deep feelings with the help of metaphorical symbols that make up the essence of his creative manner. A feature of L. Perceval's directorial vocabulary is the search for metaphorical ways of stage expression of the complex psychological content of productions, in the process of researching the main contradictions of the human personality, which enhance the plasticity of the updated minimalist stage space of the performance.
