\nHumans can only pick up a certain range of both visible and audible frequencies, i.e. from-to. It is, however, well known that infra- and ultra- worlds exist, that scales extend to both sides. Equally, there are also transition and contact zones, where the inaudible holds onto the audible, the audible rests in the inaudible, the visible challenges the invisible: just as by closing one\u2019s eyes one can see a negative afterimage of what was seen, which then dissolves into darkness by light transformations. These boundaries are Marcel Ba\u010di\u0107’s true places of residence. Except that his contact zones also include much more complex intersections: of the audible with the visible, the audible with the invisible, the inaudible with the visible, the inaudible with the invisible. Likewise, for the mannerism of an erudite and polymath to be in full shape, exemplary memory and supervised oblivion are activated simultaneously. By choosing dialogical partners, elective relationships, from history that has been translated into synchrony – Villard de Honnecourt, Klee, Max Ernst, Hans Arp…intellectual explorers like himself \u2013 Marcel Ba\u010di\u0107 exhibits and disguises his incentives, reaching for the whole or liberating details, developing them from the initial phase in unpredictable metamorphoses, in waves and motions. A comparison of the nature of this motion can only be an unfolding of breath and smoke. The basis of Ba\u010di\u0107’s visual music is music paper, present in its noble materiality and its appropriateness to the frottage technique (creation by erasing, construction by reconstruction): \u201cAnd on things mobile, on things passed, you want to scratch…\u201c…Music paper affirms the horizontal as the code of course, flow, change, cardiogram rhythm. It is an imprint, a graphic, to which one adds by painting and drawing \u00a0– conceptually: by imprinting \u2013 Ba\u010di\u0107’s life (in culture), his biography. Many of Ba\u010di\u0107’s visual stimuli come from the sphere of cryptic scripts, such as paper marbling, old binding imprints, moir\u00e9 textile, airy knitwear. These quotes from a labyrinth are a kind of slow art, where important shifts happen in millimetres, and (in)finite impressions change according to the angle of light.<\/p>\n

A look is not enough to experience Ba\u010di\u0107’s \u201csheet music\u201c. Iconographic and other forms of ignorance always make for an inadequate relationship towards painting. Identifications and comparisons, through some bright doors, uncover ever-new layers, the painting gains its depth, and motions of the surface, left and right, sink into the time funnel. But even when nothing is known about the deposit in the painting, it also has to speak to an innocent eye. It speaks to it in doubled pages, muffled colours, contrast of a persistent, linear horizontality and swaying of membranes that elude it, in abundance of details that are often barely noticeable, and which turn a quiet surface into a surprising text. The artist’s self-irony \u2013 which he doses as un soup\u00e7on, is a complement, not to say a corrective, to the lyrical nature of Ba\u010di\u0107\u2019s \u201csheet music\u201c. Finally, quotation marks should be removed from \u201csheet music\u201c. A gramophone needle produces sound by tracing record grooves, obviously time also becomes audible by tracing the lines on our fingertips. It is certain that everything visible can be played, and everything the ear hears can be translated into painting. Besides being a musician and painter, Marcel Ba\u010di\u0107 is also a translator.<\/p>\n
