Abstract

The prolific activity of Mr. Alexa Visarion may be inspiring and disarming at the same time; his path in the creative world stands as a reminder that barriers  of any kind are to be overcome by hard work and by allowing oneself to develop as freely as possible. As theatre and film director he’s known especially for  Ahead of the Silence (1978), Luna verde (2010) and Năpasta (1982), but has directed seven films and written a number of scripts. During his lifelong career  he directed over 100 plays in Romanian theatres and abroad. In 1985, he directed Stark Young’s translation of Anton Chekhov’s play, Uncle Vanya, at the  Actors Theatre of Louisville  (Mainstage) in Louisville, Kentucky. Here follows the brief presentation of a complete artist, whose discourse, as he allows to be  shown, is a mix of incisive  thought, candor and a certain type of guilelessness, something that is to be bore in mind while reading this interview about his rich international  experience.
