This exhibition commemorates the centenary of Cathy Berberian's birth, delving into the origins and significance of her groundbreaking work, 'Stripsody'. Known as her debut as a composer and one of the most unconventional vocal creations of the 20th century, 'Stripsody' blends visual art, performance, and innovative vocal experimentation with sound effects drawn from comic book language. Berberian, a prominent figure in the European avant-garde, not only lent her remarkable voice to vital works by composers like Luciano Berio and John Cage, but also played a crucial role in shaping these pieces. This exhibition contextualizes 'Stripsody' as a unique cultural artifact tied to a specific historical moment, examining her collaborations with intellectuals like Umberto Eco and artists including Eugenio Carmi. Visitors will gain insight into Berberian's revolutionary approach to music and how her work continues to influence contemporary art and music.
