Marcel Alocco's Events, some poem-scores to be performed in a real or imaginary space.
This bilingual edition in a new format is completed with previously unpublished works: "Forgotten Pieces" (1966-1976) and "Rhapsody, Baie des Anges" (2021). These events are meant to be performed again by anyone who wishes to. Some of the pieces in this book were performed on stage by the author during Fluxus concerts organized by
Ben with Serge III, Robert Bozzi, Érébo,
George Brecht and
Robert Filliou.
Marcel Alocco was born in 1937 in Nice (France) where he has practically always lived and worked. Both an artist and a writer, he belongs to the
School of Nice, from the first exhibition with
Fluxus in the years 1960, to his contribution to the nascent analytical painting (later called
Supports/Surfaces). From 1973 to now he has developed a genuine work rooted in his “Idéogrammaire” (Ideo-grammar) followed by the variations of his “Fragments du Patchwork” (Patchwork Fragments) and “Détissages” (Unweaving), works on cultures' writing crafts and memories, which are themes he has simultaneously tackled in his literary production.
