While looking at Oriol Vilapuig’s great choral composition, Otranto Fanfarria, produced between 2019 and 2022, we invite you to do the visual exercise proposed by Valentín Roma when this work was presented at La Virreina Centre de la Imatge, Barcelona, in 2022. Roma was referring to Velázquez’s extraordinary painting, ‘The Triumph of Bacchus’, better known as ‘The Drunkards’. Of all the interpretations applied to this painting, Roma explains: ‘The most daring and least literal was the one proposed by Mary Wollstonecraft on 14 April 1797, during a class at the Bloomsbury Women’s Athenaeum. It turns out that the writer recommended that the painting be looked at with half-closed eyes. In this way the characters would disappear and what the artist wanted to show would emerge "clearly": the silhouette of a world map full of perimeters, coasts and continents.’ We invite you to observe the 59 figures of this great scene by Vilapuig with your eyes half-closed, such that their apparent erratic drift yields an enormous wealth of meanings. Also listen, with your senses wide open, to the sound piece created by the musician Riccardo Massari Spiritini, ‘NISÉH RADÉH. Le profezie e le maschere’, a sound intervention composed from Vilapuig’s imaginary.
