Michele Lombardelli - Piacenza – Los Angeles
A literary bridge between two very different cities through the art and poetry publications edited by Michele Lombardelli between 1991 and 2008.
Over the years, Lombardelli's work has facilitated artistic encounters with some of the most brilliant personalities from Emilia, such as William Xerra, Carlo Berté, Mauro Sargiani, Emilio Villa, and Aldo Tagliaferri, as well as with great US poets and artists like Robert Crosson, John Baldessari, Martha Ronk, Dennis Phillips, and Guy Bennett. This network of exchanges and friendships forms the basis of the volume, in which Lombardelli, together with his friend, the poet Paul Vangelisti, skillfully intertwine poetry, visual arts, music, and literature.
Published following the eponymous exhibition curated by Paola Nicolin at XNL Piacenza in 2023.
Michele Lombardelli (born 1968 in Cremona) is an eclectic artist, musician, collector and editor. During his career he tried a lot of different techniques : painting, drawing, sculpture, installations and graphics. Using the pseudonym “Untitled Noise” he also experimented a lot with music. His visual research is moved by an analytic attitude that investigates “the unsolved” and “the undefined” following the ideas of Samuel Beckett.
