Heiner Goebbels

Aesthetics of Absence: Text on Theatre

"His texts do not present a methodology, a technique of production. They do not teach, but present the act of learning itself as a strategy, leading us safely from the green pastures of our familiar knowledge into the forest of our incomprehension to lie in wait. Asked to look into the future for the ways his practice will develop, he responded:

The relationship between concept and intuition is very complicated for me. In the best of my work, the unknown plays a major role, which I can only ever explain in hindsight."
