Title: Oedipus Date: 2001 Materials: paper, non woven textiles, felt, cotton, wood, clay Number of costumes: 15 Institution: Croatian National Theater Split, Split, Croatia Directed by: Ivica Buljan Performers: : Sven Medvesek, Ana Karic, Milan Strljic, Filip Sovagovic, Senka Bulic, Nenad Srdelic, Denis Bozic, Hrvoje Cokaric, Dara Vukic Text: The plot of Seneca's Oedipus outlines a violent and fatal conflict between the historical situation, individual, and the way in which his existence is denied or distorted. This production has found its motive in the images of Croatian society, which is forced to reexamine some of its fundamental concepts. Director Ivica Buljan presents a modern reading of the myth, resembling Lacan's reading of Oedipus complex. Location: Youth Cultural Centre, Split, Croatia Documentation: photographs Matko Biljak
