Stage director Robert Wilson has devoted the greatest of efforts toward integrating multidisciplinary elements from a range of creative fields into the realm of theater. Light and movement have played an especially central role in his productions, not only as compositional elements but as symbolic features. In this publication, his wildly creative, discipline-crossing oeuvre is approached through a framework of five suggestive sections: The Deaf Man's Gaze, The Automaton's Freedom, What Marlene Dietrich Knew, The Prisms of Silence, and The Theater in Infinite Space.
