Bob Dylan and the Arts. Songs, Film, Paintings, and Sculpture in Dylan's Universe
No full textBob Dylan and the Arts è un dialogo tra voci che, da prospettive transdisciplinari, si sono occupate del genio di Bob Dylan. L'opera di Dylan, che ha il suo centro nella forma della canzone, si estende dalla poesia alla performance, dalla pittura alla scultura, dalla radio al cinema. Gli artisti, critici, docenti e musicisti qui convenuti hanno esplorato, ognuno da un diverso punto di vista, l'inesauribile creatività dylaniana. Le loro indagini conducono il lettore a scoprire non solo le molte facce della sua Musa, ma anche l'influenza su Dylan di Norman Raeben, poco noto maestro di pittura newyorchese, finalmente indagato in tutta la sua rilevanza. Bob Dylan and the Arts propone un Dylan dalle molte maschere ma dall'ispirazione fortemente unitaria, un impulso al fare arte che, nelle sue molteplici sperimentazioni e declinazioni, si muove entro un processo creativo che non ammette confini.Bob Dylan and the Arts is a dialogue of different voices that focuses on Bob Dylan's genius from transdisciplinary perspectives.
