Birdman - Tangata Manu
musical concert-installation
emanuel dimas de melo pimenta
In 2015 the
Italian artist Marco Agostinelli started a challenging project:
Birdman and the New Generation. A big sculpture in wood, many
small sculptures, three installations, two videos, a set of lights,
several paintings and drawings in a deep dive into one of the
most disturbing and enlightening myths of our planet. Two years
of intense work resulted in a powerful and historical artwork
that also is an experience of life. In 2016, Marco Agostinelli
invited Emanuel Dimas de Melo Pimenta to compose a musical piece
for the exhibition at the magnificent Palazzo Zenobio, during
the Biennale of Venice. Emanuel Pimenta elaborated a concert-installation
using robotic sounds of poems created by one hundred poets from
thirty countries and birds from all over the world. The musical
score, made inside Virtual Reality, was based on the oldest known
musical score, dated of around four thousand years ago, which
is in the Schøyen Collection. The musical concert-installation
by Emanuel Pimenta is dedicated to Marco Agostinelli e a Martin
Schøyen.
