Knjiga čarobnjaka: Povijest umjetnosti iluzionizma

Olaf Benzinger

Izvrsna knjiga... Autor argumentirano definira iluzionizam kao umjetnost ravnopravnu svim drugim umjetničkim izrazima.

"Knjiga čarobnjaka" vodi nas na uzbudljivo putovanje kroz povijest iluzionizma. Benzinger nam na razumljiv način otkriva na čemu počiva ono očaravajuće, tajnovito i naizgled mistično u umjetnosti iluzionizma, i zbog čega je jedno vrhunsko iluzionističko djelo puno više od pukog trika. Zahvaljujući ovoj knjizi po prvi put imamo priliku pročitati nešto o ključnim činjenicama, najvažnijim imenima i najslavnijim iluzionističkim predstavama, te o vezama između iluzionističke i drugih umjetnosti.

Put je to od starog Egipta i drevnih praopsjenara poput Dedija, preko srednjovjekovnih prevaranata i cirkusanata, do superzvijezda današnjice kao što su David Copperfield, Lance Burton ili Siegfried & Roy.
