Rêve et Folie
Claude Régy
Based on texts by Georg Trakl
Claude Régy’s visit to Nantes – for the first time! – is an event in itself. Plus, the fact that Rêve et Folie will be his final show only adds to the exceptional nature of the occasion. With this autobiographical prose poem by early 20th century artist and poète maudit, Georg Trakl – often compared to Hölderlin or Rimbaud – 93-year-old Régy sinks ever deeper into his obsessions: transgression, madness, suicide and death.
