Poetic-musical performance by Alessandro Ciccarelli and Leonardo Zaccone inspired by the photographic fanzine: Il lavoro del musicista (in accordo con Paul Éluard)
For the first time, Leporello is hosting a performance of music and poetry within its spaces, thanks to the magic of the duo composed of Alessandro Ciccarelli and Leonardo Zaccone.
In the early 1940s, Paul Éluard wrote two short poems in seven chapters, “Le travail du poète” and “Le travail du peintre” dedicated to Pablo Picasso, a fraternal friend.
Before being published at the tail end of “Poésie ininterrompue,” the two produced together a rare small volume with Éluard’s poems and some of Picasso’s sketches.
This was the inspiration that guided Leonardo Zaccone, a poet and musician, and Alessandro Ciccarelli, a photographer and musician, in creating the fanzine.
The melatophonic notebook “The Musician’s Work”, in which graphic words and elusive images duet, suggesting an intimate dimension of being a musician, is the outcome of their musical collaboration.
