Description:
Sea & Sky / Black & White is a unique cassette album that features the poetry readings of American poet Robert Lax, released in 1981 as part of the Recorthings cassette series. This series was self-published by artist Maurizio Nannucci, an influential figure in neon art, concrete poetry, and sound poetry. Nannucci introduced Lax’s work to Italy in 1978 and invited him to perform in Florence.

Lax, who led a largely solitary life on the island of Patmos, was deeply introspective, seeking simplicity, clarity, and spiritual depth in his work. His poetry reflects a search for "beautiful innocence," with a focus on life's essentials. His readings, characterized by minimalism and contemplation, are powerful meditations on life, faith, and existence.

This cassette, Sea & Sky / Black & White, is Lax's only known recorded reading, making it a rare and essential part of his literary legacy.
