'To Neptune, Ruler of the Seas Profound'. A Conversation between Isabella Summers and Tatiana Cheneviere

A special In Perspective episode to discover the musical project by the composer and musician Isabella Summers, To Neptune, Ruler of the Seas Profound (2019), devoted to Cy Twombly’s life and work.
The piece, composed and recorded in 2019, was originally played through headphones on the occasion of the exhibition Cy Twombly: Sculpture at Gagosian in London. Later in May 2022, on the occasion of the first edition of the Un/veiled program, the composition was arranged for orchestra by the musician for the live performance held at the Fondazione Nicola Del Roscio in Rome and further expanded for a second live performance on the occasion of the exhibition Cy Twombly at Gagosian in Los Angeles in December 2022.
The third episode of the second season of In Perspective features a conversation between Isabella Summers and Tatiana Cheneviere, curator of the project, about the origin and the creative process behind the musical piece.

Literature Turned to a Painting. Dean Rader & Cole Swensen in conversation

In Perspective comes back with a special episode dedicated to poetry and its deep connection with Cy Twombly and his works. Through the conversation between the poets Cole Swensen and Dean Rader as well as the reading of their poetic works dedicated to the artist, we will be accompanied to an in-between space, where poetry becomes paint and paint becomes poetry, where poem and handwriting are not definitive but living things, where the artist’s paintings look landscapes established by shades of greens “deep and full of life” and the “white” of his sculptures is a constant opening, “an enactment of a borderlessness.”
The audio conversation and the transcription are also available on the Cy Twombly Foundation's official website, visiting the Episode One of In Perspective 2.
