Summary/Abstract: Three metaphor-objects could define the traditional relationship between the performer and the audience: mask, mirror and vessel. They occasion an incursion in the history of culture and a survey on the mentality surrounding performers and mainly actors. Some remnants of the rituals related to the transmission of Art forms and their mystical references were and still are accompanying the direct artistic reception.
