We look back at more than half a century of mysterious artistic creation while trying to crack a unique artistic code. Why are people moved to tears when Robert โBobโ Wilson puts minimalistic petrol pumps into a production of Shakespeareโs sonnets? Why does merciless repetition change our understanding of something? Together with Tom Waits, Willem Dafoe or Marina Abramoviฤ we trace back our own experience of Bobโs art. Is it true what Philipp Glass the collaborator of the milestone piece โEinstein on the Beachโ laughingly and with apparent pleasure exclaims โwhat does it mean? It doesnโt mean anything!โ?
