Ismael Ivo |

Ismael Ivo's latest solo reflects his encounter with Robert Mapplethorpe and is at the same time a homage to the life work of the famous photographer. The performance consists of three parts: Prison - the emancipation of the body, in the physical and spiritual senses. Flowers - a hundred and fifty white calla, the flowers that are presented so forcefully in Mapplethorpe's photographic work. Mortality - last solo on a small stela before a vast mirror. Mapplethorpe divulged the look of desire at the black male body - Ismael Ivo continues this appraisal in his performance.
