Kann man ein Buch uber Robert Wilson machen, ohne die Ergebnisse seiner Arbeit in den Mittelpunkt zu stellen - Buhnenbilder, Spielszenen, Licht und Projektionen? Jo Rottger hat es getan und es ist ein ein erstaunliches Buch geworden. Er hat Robert Wilson auf seinem rastlosen globalen Flug begleitet. Im Watermill Center, Long Island, in seinem Apartment in New York, bei Vorbereitungen und Proben zu verschiedenen Inszenierungen in Warschau, Paris, Berlin und Taiwan, bei der Begegnung mit Derwischtanzern in Istanbul und Athen, bei der Eroffnung der VOOM Ausstellung in New York. Der Fotograf hat sich diskret im Hintergrund aufgehalten und geduldig beobachtet. Seine Bilder zeigen den Ursprung, die Eckpfeiler und verschiedene Figuren eines vielschichtigen Koordinatensytems und sie zeigen, wie mit Liebe, Prazision und grosster Sorgfalt neue Facetten eingeflochten werden. Stein um Stein wird gesetzt, wie in einem Brettspiel ohne Anfang und Ende, nicht um unverruckbar Positionen zu definieren oder zu halten, sondern als Ausgangs- oder Anknupfungspunkt fur eine standig wachsende Zahl an moglichen Konstellationen. Wir sehen, wie Energie geschopft und verbraucht wird und begreifen, dass alles im Fluss bleiben und vieles ausprobiert werden muss, wenn etwas Gutes gelingen soll. Das Buch ist ein grosser Kunstgenuss und wie ein guter Theaterabend entlasst es den Zuschauer mit dem Gefuhl, eine Menge Arbeit vor sich zu haben.
