GIORGIO
La scultura reinterpreta una tela di Giorgio Morandi in cui appare in modo del tutto inaspettato un gatto davanti alle più tradizionali bottiglie. Gli autori, interagendo con i materiali e la personale rivisitazione delle linee, mettono in relazione l’avanguardia del pittore con il percorso musicale di Giorgio Moroder, produttore di musica elettronica attivo dagli anni ’70. Ai soggetti di Morandi si è così accostata una serie di piani trasparenti che, nell’incrociare le proprie linee, disegnano le parti mancanti della tela originaria, come se fossero gli effetti laser delle prime discoteche.
Sulla musica di Daft Punk / Moroder è inoltre sovrainciso il testo adattato alla storia di Morandi.

TESTO ORIGINALE DI GIORGIO MORODER
When I was fifteen, sixteen
when I started really to play the guitar
I definitely wanted to become a musician
It was almost impossible because
The dream was so big
I didn't see any chance because I was living in a little town, I was studying.
And when I finally broke away from school and became I musician
I thought "well I may have a bit of a chance"
Because all I every wanted to do is music but not only play music
But compose music.
At that time, in Germany, in 1969-70, they already had discotheques
So I would take my car and go to a discotheque and
Sing maybe 30 minutes
I think I had about 7-8 songs.
I would partially sleep in the car
Because I didn't want to drive home
And that help me for about almost 2 years
To survive. In the beginning,
I wanted to do a album with the sound of the 50s,
The sound of the 60s, of the 70s
And then have a sound of the future.
And I said: "Wait a second?
I know the synthesizer, why don't I use the synthesizer
which is the sound of the future."
And I didn't have any idea what to do but I knew I needed a click
So we put a click on the 24 track which was then synch to the moog modular.
I knew that it could be a sound of the future
But I didn't realise how much impact it would be.
My name is Giovanni Giorgio, but everybody calls me Giorgio.
You want to free your mind about a concept of
Harmony and music being correct,
You can do whatever you want.
So nobody told me what to do,
And there was no preconception of what to do.
TESTO ADATTATO SU GIORGIO MORANDI
When I was fifteen, sixteen
When I started really to move the brush
I definitely wanted to become an artist
It was almost impossible because
The dream was so big
That I didn't see any chance, because I was living in the great Bologna, I was studying.
And when I finally face my teachers and became a modern painter
I thought "well, I may have a little bit of a chance"
Because all I really wanted to do is art
And not only copy classic work, but draw my works
At that time, in France and Spain, in ’09, ’10, they already had some great artistic movement
So I would take my dreams, would go to an exibition
Carving maybe thirty minutes
I think I had about seven, eight sheets
I would partially sleep in the studio
Because I didn't want to go home
And that helped me for about a couple of years to survive. In the beginning
I wanted to do an quadrennial in the capital city
The mood of the ‘900
And then have a style of the future
And I thought: "Wait a second
I know the pure line, why don't I use only few colors ?
Which is the sound of the future"
And I didn't have any idea what to do but I knew I needed a rhythm
So I put some bottles on the table which was then synced my artistic mood
I knew that it could be a sound of the future
But I didn't realize how much impact would be
My name is Morandi Giorgio, but everybody calls me Giorgio.
Once you free your mind about a concept of
Harmony and of line being correct
You can do whatever you want
So nobody told me what to do
And there was no preconception of what to do
