O związkach Iwana Wyrypajewa z teatrem

Abstract

This article attempts to characterize artistic creativity of Ivan Vyrypayev – a contemporary Russian playwright, director, actor and performer. The features that distinguish not only his dramaturgical output but, above all, his working in the artistic area are syncretism and eclecticism. The author of Delhi Dance is a versatile artist – he successfully performs as an actor in the theatrical project Oxygen, „sings” in his group Sachar (Sugar), writes intentionally „not funny” anecdotes in Comedy, presents a paradocumentary drama UFO. As well as in his other projects – theatre (Mahamaya electronic devices, Interview S-FBP 4408) and films (Euphoria, Oxygen, Salvation), Vyrypaev addresses fundamental issues concerning love, freedom, happiness, sense of life and interpersonal communication.
