About

The online exhibition “Strasberg Legacy” is available on Art Aia - Creatives / In / Residence on Google Arts & Culture. It retraces in detail the history of the realistic school of acting, from its beginnings in Russia to John Strasberg’s Organic Creative Process. Part of the story is narrated by Strasberg himself through rare interviews conducted by Giovanni Morassutti under the portico of the church of St Anthony of Padua at Art Aia - Creatives / In / Residence and also in Berlin during a Masterclass, through a John Strasberg’s audio recording of visiting Berlin with his family in the early 60s while the wall was being just built. There are also curiosities about Marylin Monroe and her coach Paula, second wife of Lee Strasberg and mother of John and Susan. The story is narrated in a new way for the audience to learn what is beyond the famous Method Acting, The Strasberg family and the Actors Studio of New York.
