This Project has benefited from the Contribution of the Regione Campania in support of interventions and activities aimed for the development, promotion and enhancement of local interest’s Libraries. Financial year 2025
In 2013, Luca Maria Patella and Rosa Foschi designed Les donnés mon alchive Lo Scriptorium dell’Adepto, an environment at the Biblioteca per le Arti Contemporanee Fondazione Morra, meticulously conceived as “psychological-work ‘in action’ “, set up according to Duchampian conceptual rhythms that are able to expand connections by supporting the layers of Culture involved in the dense linguistic-visual machinery.
Today, it reopens to scholars and visitors, among correspondence, volumes, menabò, book-objects, magazines, gazzette, the signs of a versatile poetics mediated through engravings, films, installations, monumental works, photographs, literary texts, videos and visual poems.
Les donnés mon alchive lo Scriptorium dell’Adepto, accessible through microscopic openings (fish eye), is a secret and precious Wunderkammer around which the curators, to celebrate its restoration, have created delicate atmospheres inspired by the four volumes published by Edizioni Morra, Io son Dolce Sirena (poems from 2000 and 2002), Romanzo ferroviario (1974-2003), Patella Ressemble à Patella (2007), Dichiarazioni Noètiche +Imàgines and Romanzino of the volume Stazione di Vita (2003-2011), following their traces, linked by a chromatic reference, attributable to Lüscher’s theory of Psychic Colors and Jung’s four psychological functions, also used for the Porta dei 4 Colori (Door of the 4 Colors) that marks the entrance to the Scriptorium.
It will be possible to consult the L. M. R. Patella Fondo of the Fondazione Morra which consists of approximately 1.320 bibliographic units.
