Boris Nikitin - F WIE FÄLSCHUNG (nach Orson Welles).
An evening of an with Malte Scholz
In Orson Welles’ „F for Fake“, a faker claims his work a piece of art. „F wie Fälschung“ also deals with fraud, delusion, and magic. Boris Nikitin’s exemplary initial point – a theatre production – draws a multi-layered and entertaining reflection on reality.
It is an intricate play with the play, with the reliability of experience, and the illusion of reality.
