The Cedilla it­self is la Cedille qui Sourit, a shop they operate at Villefranche-sur-mer on the cote d'azure where small works of avant-garde art are sold along with postcards, jewelry (by Donna Jo Brewer/Jones) and all kinds of things which do or do not have a cedilla in their (French) name. And at the Cedilla the notebooks are kept, as the researches are devel­oped, in the manner appropriate to the investigations, with a bottle of either the cheapest pleasant wine or the pleasantest cheap wine, depend­ing upon the occasion. In this way that dread disease to all artists, humorlessitis, is prevented from ap­pearing, and the artists involved (and the others too) remain in good aesthetic health.” (from the back flap). euro 200

One of 69 copies with an additional framed (1,8 x 53 x 38)print, signed and dated "Chiari 72". the 69 copies of the special edition correspond with number of word combinations Chiari makes with the word MUSIC. This print reads in large letters "MUSICA MOSAICO" (corresponding with the same combination printed on page 65 of the book). In his afterword Tomasso Trini quotes Gilles Deleuze on the work of Chiari: ‘To vary on the varying...’. I must admit I did not understand for a long time the extreme importance of Chiari’s stand. Being misled by avantgardistic prejudices I suspected that he vindicated an old right to be novel. It is not at all that, but a profoundly modern ideological vindication. ‘To give up the idea of a scale...’, as Chiari says, ‘to give up the articulation is perhaps the greatest effort a man can ask of himself’. As in Musica Madre, where the being different generates itself within the coupling of the two words, all his musical and visual work opposes itself to the sclerotic universe of languages arranged in codes supported by a hierarchy of values and it regenerates itself in a discontinuous series of acts and thoughts since ‘we want to think the difference in itself and the relationship of the different with the different’(de matteis - maffei, 691) euro 850
