Vincente Minnelli – The World Is a Stage

"The world is a stage, the stage is a world of entertainment." The refrain of the song "That's Entertainment" from one of the best-known film musicals, THE BAND WAGON (1953), describes Vincente Minnelli's (1903–1986) vision of combining art and life, art and entertainment. Minnelli's work exemplarily stands for the successful merging of high and pop culture, authorship and genre - within Hollywood's studio system.
