Wilp, Charles/yves Klein
Prince Of Space/tanz Der Leere
Probably one of Charles Wilp's most unusual projects, 'Tanz Der Leere' was released at the end of the 1950s, in collaboration with the artist Yves Klein. Instead of a melody, all that can be heard on this record is the scratching of the needle - the emptiness is reminiscent of John Cage's musical performance 'Composition 4'33.' Contextually, this piece is based on Klein's visual work as well as his reflections on emptiness, which Charles Wilp already documented with photography. Hand-numbered, limited to 100 copies. With extensive liner notes, photographs, postcard, and an 8-page facsimile of a 1974 Charles Wilp exhibit in London related to 'Tanz Der Leere.' Reissued for the first time.
