// Old World by Jorge Macchi is a limited edition lithograph from 2007, produced in an edition of 50. The artwork presents two overlapping circular forms resembling ancient cartographic maps, labeled “Hemisphere Occident” and “Hemisphere Orient.” The circles are filled with fractured, puzzle-like segments that resemble cracked earth or broken glass, suggesting the fragility and disintegration of what these hemispheres represent. By distorting the classic world map into fragmented sections, Macchi invites viewers to contemplate the fragility of historical and geographical constructs. The subtle, monochromatic palette emphasizes the timeless quality of the image while highlighting the intricate, delicate lines of each fractured segment.

What is Sound Art?
Sound Art is an artistic discipline where sound is used as the primary medium. Like other contemporary art genres, Sound Art is inherently interdisciplinary, engaging with a variety of subjects including electronics, acoustics, noise music, psychoacoustics, audio media, video, film, and sculpture. Early examples of Sound Art include Luigi Russolo's noise intoners, as well as experimental works by Surrealists, Dadaists, and the Fluxus movement. These early pioneers helped establish sound as a legitimate medium for artistic expression.
