Piero's War - Fabrizio De Andrè | 1966 - Quadrisonanti

A painting you can listen to.

La Guerra Di Piero by Fabrizio De Andrè (1966) is much more than a work of art to hang on the wall. It is a complete sensory experience: frame the QR code printed on the painting with your smartphone and let yourself be transported by the song that inspired this work.

A minimalist and devastating style, with a red poppy filling the entire scene like the blood that cannot be unseen, it tells the story of war as absolute absurdity — that of a boy who did not want to fight and ends up lying in a field of flowers he did not choose. The scene is divided into two distinct bands: above, a flat, indifferent blue sky — serene, quiet, as if it knows nothing of what is happening below. Below, an endless field of geometric and three-dimensional red poppies extends to the horizon — hundreds of identical, perfect, silent flowers. And in the center of that red field, a geometric and dark human figure — built of gray blocks like a toy soldier — lies, motionless, arms at its sides. It has not fallen. It is there. Sleeping in the wheat. Piero's war ended like this: in a field of poppies, under a sky that saw nothing.
