Ben Shahn (1898-1969) - Comp. for Saxophone & Piano

A real GENIUS: Photographer Pittora, Illustrator, Designer.
One of the most socially engaged artists of all time.
The series dedicated to Sacco and Vanzetti, from the early 1930s, has gone down in the History (the REAL History) of Art.
As with the works dedicated to Gandhi and to Martin Luther King.
And to music, which is the theme of the Opera I propose.
Unknown to many, he is one of the artists I love most: in my studio, right behind the armchair that has hosted me for decades, there shines one of his works I cherish greatly: The Child of Old Prague by Rilke.
Great BEN!!!!!!!
