Maldoror

Art-video for the adaptation to the Theatre, by Benjamin Lazar, of Chants de Maldoror by Lautréamont.

LautréamontTheaterBenjamin Lazar

Mysterious and untamed, the work of Comte de Lautréamont emerges as the revolt of a young man at his piano in a 19th-century Paris hotel room. From this image, Benjamin Lazar sets out, through words and music, to rediscover Maldoror and re-enchant Les Chants de Maldoror. Alone, shifting between identities—Ducasse, Lautréamont, Maldoror—he gives form to a dark, visionary world whose echoes shaped 20th-century art.
