An installation made of cardboard and iron is displayed in the central plaza of the GAM. It contains anecdotal data from the life of William Shakespeare and some quotes from his most emblematic works, such as “See that sometimes the devil deceives us with the truth” from Macbeth, or the classic “To be or not to be, that is the question” from Hamlet.
There are 46 circles that make up a globe 3 meters wide x 4 meters high and contain an educational tour of the life and work of the English playwright, along with curious facts.
The intervention, which is illuminated at night, aims to attract the public and bring them closer to the figure of William Shakespeare, on the anniversary of the 400 years of his death.
This production, organized by GAM together with El Mercurio, completes the tributes to the writer that have been organized throughout the year with special artistic programming.
