NUNCA FOMOS À LUA

Gustavo Colombini

Gustavo Colombini’s “Nunca fomos à lua” was born from the investigation of the official collections of the collections made available by the Lunar and Planetary Institute that witness the arrival of humanity on the moon. This project, developed within the scope of PERPHOTO Lab, intends to deepen the relationship between the archive, the historical photographic image and the text, within the scope of conference practices, seeking, for this, to establish different relationships between iconographic analysis, dramaturgical construction and studies on the future that give rise to new photo-textual compositions.

Gustavo Colombini is a playwright and theater director. In 2014, he completed a course in Performing Arts at the School of Communication and Arts at the University of São Paulo. The relationship with research and dramaturgy emerged early in his academic career, adding several publications and professional distinctions, such as Colônia (2018) published by GLAC Edições and nominated for the APCA award in the category of Best Dramaturgy. We also highlight Ponto de Fuga (2014), an end-of-course project, staged at Casa do Povo, in São Paulo. He is currently attending the Masters in Theater Studies at the University of Lisbon and is dedicated to the investigation of images, text and speech, focusing mainly on the practices of conference-performance.
