The large-scale media installation "Figaro Parallelo" allows a comparison of recent productions of "The Marriage of Figaro": Salzburger Festspiele (2006), Opernhaus Zürich (2007), Gran Teatro La Fenice di Venezia (2011), Festival d’Aix-en-Provence (2012), Wiener Staatsoper (2013), The Metropolitan Opera New York (2014) and Royal Opera House Covent Garden (2015). In the centre is the historical Figaro as a starting point and mirror projection in a model stage inspired by the 2011 production at the Gran Teatro La Fenice di Venezia.
