On the photography exhibition of Nelly Tragousti
The photos of Nelly Tragousti recall to the spectator’s memory faces and places from the days when Theo Angelopoulos was filming in Germany, and mainly in Berlin, the last movie that he completed, ‘The Dust of Time’. The foreground consists of the image of the great Greek director, his face beneath the studio camera, his gestures while he talks, explains or instructs his actors and crew. His presence remains palpable through its aura even in the photos where he is not included. In the actors, the photographer captures and depicts something fleeting and very personal, from the moments preceding or following their purely interpretive work on their role. At the same time, she presents us with the urban landscape and the spaces which hosted the work of the actors, the crew, the director.
