About The Artwork

Harry Houdini, est un illusionniste américain d'origine hongroise. Il émigre avec sa famille aux États-Unis, à l’âge de 4 ans. Il devient magicien professionnel et commence à se faire appeler « Harry Houdini » car il admire le magicien français Jean-Eugène Robert-Houdin. Avant de devenir célèbre, il est le compagnon de tournée des Trois Keaton dans un « Médecine show ». Ses meilleurs tours consistent à s'évader d'une malle remplie d'eau, fermée et enchaînée, ou d'un bidon en métal. Houdini meurt d'une péritonite consécutive à une rupture de l'appendice. Il n’est pas italien, comme je l’avais cru au début. Et il tient son nom d’un magicien français tout en étant hongrois ayant émigré aux U.S.A. Comme quoi de façon magique : “tutto il mondo e paese”. Pas de chance que "Harry rencontre Rubens" un jour, et pourtant tout le monde est un pays. Harry Houdini, is an American illusionist of Hungarian origin. He emigrated with his family to the United States, at the age of 4 years. He becomes a professional magician and begins to call himself "Harry Houdini" because he admires the French magician Jean-Eugène Robert-Houdin. Before becoming famous, he is the tour companion of the Three Keatons in a "Medicine Show". His best tricks are to escape from a trunk filled with water, closed and chained, or a metal can. Houdini dies of a peritonitis consecutive to a rupture of the appendix. He is not Italian, as I had thought at first. And it takes its name from a French magician while being Hungarian having emigrated to the U.S.A. As what magically: "tutto il mondo e paese". No chance "Harry meet Rubens" one day, and yet everyone is a country.
