Description

Can we tell the difference between the artist and the art? And if yes – how do we do it? In the theatre essay Noli me tangere by the author and actor Draga Potočnjak, her co-performer Klemen Kovačič is half-seriously faced with this task, but actually only so that he, together with Draga, can face something more essential – why do we only ask these questions when the artist is burdened with the baggage of problematic political or personal points of view and inappropriate or even criminal acts? Handke, Riefenstahl, Rupnik? These stories often embarrass us so we tackle them with our gloves on, but Draga and Klemen take them off in their essay and without mercy delve deep into the subject matter.
