Loris Graud Cellar Door An Opera In Almost One Act

By Loris Graud

Subjects: Exhibitions, Musical settings, Librettos, Operas

Description: An opera in (almost) one act, "Cellar Door" features some ten characters on the fringes of a variety of practices, disciplines, and areas of knowledge. Together they conjure up the outlines of a unique aesthetic production which includes pyrotechnics, geodesic domes, and bubbles of black champagne. The book simultaneously plays the role of a libretto, a guide to exploring a series of the artist's exhibitions, and a coded score giving access to an improbable Studio - (almost) that of Loris Gréaud.
