w…nographie 2001


Conceived by Jacopo Baboni Schilingi (music) and Jean-Pierre Balpe (texte)

Commissioned by Biennale de Poètes en Val de Marne (2001)

Two customers are at the « bar of poets ». A woman and a man read texts for themself.

Thus, music is a new approach to understand poetry. The meaningful texts allow those two characters to discuss with a satiric tone. Images from the out world are nearly intrusive in this muted bar. They are an introduction for other levels in this verbal exchange: between two different conceptions of image, between what is reading and image’s meaning, and between reality and poetry.
