Sole Mani(1989)
4 min · Directed by Horst Schier
Released
In this musical short, conceptual artist Mario Mariotti uses only his painted hands to create an orchestra, conductor and choir. Mariotti's figures dextrously play percussion, brass and string instruments, performing a robust orchestral rendition of the Happy Birthday theme. Musical harmony is shattered, however, when the flutist sounds a wrong note, causing the conductor to contort in horror.
