The spirit of Warhol’s stylized genre-bending collaborations with the late Paul Morrissey infuses Serra’s lush and mournful imagination of an encounter between Giacomo Casanova and Count Dracula. Starring poet and Catalan art critic Vicenç Altaió as a voluble Casanova, Story of My Death stages the meeting of the mythical figures as embodiments of distinct ideas of human desire and, perhaps, a charged metaphor for the passage from the Enlightenment to Romanticism.
