programme note:
"To let that which shows itself be heard in the very way it shows itself from itself.’ In the case
of the picture of the Menaced Assassin this suggests to Levy the possibility that the sound
playing on the phonograph record which the murderer listens to is none other than the
surprised cry of his unfortunate victim. One hears, and ones hears oneself hearing. The two
are forever entangled and as such there is nothing to do but celebrate.”
the two paintings that accompany this documentation are by Rene Magritte:
and they are
the menaced assassin, 1927
and
the difficult crossing, 1926
