BRIAN ENO. REFLECTED
20,00€
TEXTS BY: Arian Eno, Tom Phillips, Marco Pierini
«What I think we are doing when we find pleasure in sex, drugs, art and religion is we are rehearsing our ability to surrender. So, this brings us, having taken a very long way round, to why I think this is what I would like to see in a church now. If you try to imagine what the effect of those pieces of work, the works by Beato Angelico, Perugino, Piero della Francesca, the effect those works must have had on the 15th or 16th century eye: that is what I’m trying to recreate. I should be humbler than I am, but I’m trying to com- pete with them in 21st century terms. I’m trying to say “this is what I think should be in churches now”» (B. Eno)

Description
Il volume documenta gli interventi di Brian Eno per la mostra temporanea alla Galleria Nazionale dell’Umbria, a Perugia, nell’autunno 2020.
Il non-musicista, compositore e artista britannico realizza tre light-box musicali che dialogano con altrettante opere scelte dalla collezione del museo.
Così i lavori di Piero della Francesca, Beato Angelico e il Perugino divengono gli interlocutori privilegiati di un dialogo oggi quanto mai necessario tra antico e contemporaneo.

Mario Giacomelli – Faraway, So Close
AUTHOR: Alessandro Sarteanesi
The idea of distance in Giacomelli’s work is never a simple calculated measurement between the photographer and the subject, it is an unstable threshold where reality is held and transformed. Moving closer or further away alters the actual degree to which the image can be seen, or, indeed, its very possibility of existing. At a distance, the world can lose its weight, become a structure, or transcend all recognisability and return to its original matter, or even waver, unrevealed, between the two. Alessandro Sarteanesi

«Dimentica i pieni, cioè le figure, e osserva la perfezione delle forme dei vuoti. Impara a leggere i quadri antichi prescindendo dalla figura e imparerai a trovare gli stessi valori nei quadri moderni che all’apparenza non hanno un rapporto naturalistico». Afro Basaldella davanti ai lavori di Piero della Francesca.
