These ivory mythological characters each embody a specific season: Flora for spring, Ceres for summer, Bacchus for autumn, Vulcan for winter.…

Music has a huge roll in the mood of the movie there is from happy times of being together, to being sad that they do not have each other…

Café Muller on the other hand is an original work by Bausch. The piece is very rich with information about Bausch's style and techniques as well as her personal background. Growing up observing patrons visiting her parents' restaurant, she had exposure to a wide pool of human experiences and emotions to make the basis for this art work. In an interview with the Daily Telegraph in 2001, Bausch told the interviewer that the café's patrons she watched growing up were a "formative influence" on her view of sexual attractions."It was a place where life happens, and couples have love affairs and fights," she said, "I saw that love was a strong relationship in which anything can happen. For some people, fighting is exciting; life would be boring without it." It was her early window to life.…
