Francesco Conz’s “La Livre: An Homage to Ezra Pound” project was begun in 1987 and was uncompleted at the time of his death. Over the years he held a series of seven workshops with writers and artists at Brunnenburg, a thirteenth-century castle in the province of South Tyrol where Ezra Pound spent much of his later years, and which is now the home of Pound’s daughter, Mary de Rachewiltz.
