Glenn Gould è ormai un’icona del Novecento. La sua immagine campeggia ovunque si parli o si discuta di musica, quasi alla stregua di un marchio registrato. Eppure la diffusione del mito rischia di rimuovere la profondità del musicista, così attento alle dinamiche sociali e politiche, addomesticando il suo messaggio di interprete negli stereotipi della società dell’estetizzazione diffusa. L’autore mette al centro della sua riflessione le questioni teoriche e politiche del lascito gouldiano, analizzando le registrazioni e gli scritti saggistici per costruire un discorso organico sulla sua idea di interpretazione musicale, e non manca di riflettere sull’influsso di Gould, soprattutto nelle opere di Edward W. Said sul fronte della critica culturale e di Thomas Bernhard su quello della letteratura. Si delinea il ritratto di un musicista sensibile a un’idea comunitaria di musica, che ha saputo anticipare un futuro in cui l’arte possa essere goduta e capita con l’attenzione necessaria. Gould si è realmente posto il problema della deriva culturale, provando a costruire soluzioni e a sperimentare pratiche di senso. Emerge un’estetica politica della musica, capace di far uscire la figura dell’artista fuori dai luoghi comuni che deturpano l’immagine di un pianista condannato a essere schiavo del consumismo culturale.

"Roni Horn (b. 1955) is a prominent contemporary artist known for her sculptures, photography, and installations inspired by landscape and the natural world, and especially the isolated landscapes of Iceland, where she has travelled and lived for substantial periods of time since the early 1970s. Horn's work explores geology and climate; the interplay of nature, art, and place; and the relationships between words, appearance, androgyny, and the self. Horn is author of more than twenty books and artist's books, and is herself the subject of more than thirty books and exhibition catalogs, including a survey published by Phaidon and many by Steidl. Examples of her work include You Are the Weather (1994-96), a series of photographs of a young woman bathing in Icelandic hot springs; Pair Objects (1988), identical metal sculptures placed in two different locations; and the installation Library of Water (2007) in Iceland, with columns that enclose water from melting glaciers. Horn is arguably the most important visual chronicler of the landscape of Iceland. Upon graduating from her MFA program at Yale, she traveled to Iceland, journeying across its interior on a motorcycle. Over thirty years, she has continually returned to Iceland to explore and record the astonishing beauty of its geology, climate, and culture. This book will contain a range of texts, from evocative vignettes to illustrated essays written for Iceland's most widely-read newspaper. A combination of artists' writings and travelogue, the texts reveal Iceland as one of Horne's most important influences and inspirations, and record a unique and beautiful environment undergoing climate change"--
