Diario di uno spettatore clandestino
(Diary of a clandestine spectator
) is a collection of drawings made by french illustrator François Olislaeger,
who visually documented the rehearsals of Guerra e Pace
(War and Peace
) directed by Andrea Baracco, during Perugia's 2021 lockdown.
The six illustrated diaries, bound separately and collected in a black box with an embossed silk print on top, constitute an intimate report of an artist witnessing a play become more real than the world outside.
