Excerpted from the interview he did today Calegaris Hugo Pablo de Santis Culture DNA.
"So, how to resolve in eight squares a particular segment ...
"Yes, depends on the format. Sometimes an entire album can be continued, or may be four or eight pages. This is essential when thinking about a character and a kind of story. The formal aspects incite the imagination. There are limits. The accepted thinking it's good to have a particular requirement.
- Does that help your imagination, meet standards?
"Always. With any kind of guidelines. I like the guidelines: delivery date, quantity line, gender, number of pages ...
- Is not it a burden?
"No, no. I think that for the neurosis of the writer is good to have a way to contain it. In my case, the format is the muse.
"But that does not happen with the novel, for there you have many pages as you like and as long as you want at your disposal.
"But there I have gender, fortunately, and will always contain gender. They are also a way of imposing guidelines. And I feel that novels also contain me psychologically. When I'm writing a novel, I'm concentrating on something. If not, I dispersed. I need to be always writing a novel, but then did not post.
- you never feel the urge to get out of the guides?
"But there are always guides. In general, the literature is less guidance which is more like herself. If one thinks, for example, in a category like police movies, movies do not look like much from them. Now, the avant-garde films always have similar features. Artistic films will all look good.
"For example, many young Argentine filmmakers make movies quite similar ...
"Therefore: when relinquishing the conventions and falls into the illusion that the conventions do not exist, go to a single story form, is not it, and extremely repetitive.
"That sounds contradictory. The first thing one tends to think that the convention is the same ...
"Sure, but a move with an awareness of the convention and can handle it. There must always be artificial, because that is art. Even in common conversation, when we have something, do it with artifice. I tell my wife something and find ways to interest. If you know something's going to surprise, I'm going to say at the end. There is a mise en scene. The devices are within the language. Not only grammar, but other conventions.
-O is: delete the devices is only an illusion.
-Yes, and always had great art not only conventions, but very distinct conventions. If you see a Greek tragedy, Elizabethan theater, notes that there is a certain amount of guidance. The same happens in poetry, the sonnet.
"Many young artists speak of the great art or the" cinema of quality "in an almost pejorative. Is it because I want to escape the conventions of happy endings, sad endings of just the end?
"Yes, and also to escape the parental world. Identify conventions Parental artistic world of the deposits, as opposed to real life. But then you will see that things are not working well. That world of the conventions requires an ability to move them.
