Proyecto AMIL and Buh Records join forces to produce a collection of three vinyl records that will bring together fundamental pieces of Peruvian contemporary artists that operate on the borders of visual arts and sound. This project contributes to the understanding of the dynamic between sound and visual art; a relationship that has gained particular validity in recent decades, with the rise of sound art and in the context of technological development in artistic production. This series of records stands as a fundamental document for those interested in the art of voice and sound poetry.
The first result of this collaboration is the album Audiopaints: Verbal Structures for Voice (1972) by Jorge Eduardo Eielson (Lima 1924- Milan 2006), made possible with the cooperation of Centro Studi Jorge Eielson. The LP includes, for the first time in vinyl format, the full version of Colores and a live recording of the piece performed in 1998. The record also includes a booklet with extensive liner notes and texts by curator and music researcher Luis Alvarado, which analyses several dimensions of Eielson’s relationship with sound poetry.
Jorge Eduardo Eielson called “vocal structures” or “audio paintings” to his experiments in vocal poetry, which were all based on combinatorial analysis and permutations. Of these experiments carried out over a period of five years (1972-1977), only one has remained, and its author has presented it on several public and private occasions, both in its recorded form as well as in live performances. This is the piece called Colores [Colors], which is based on the repetition of words that name colors: red, yellow, green, blue. And where each word has a different tonality.
Soon we will be presenting the sound art vinyls of the Peruvian artists Sergio Zevallos and Teresa Burga.
