Paolo Corraini Archive
Preserving Jazz Heritage
Paolo Corraini works to preserve, study, and promote Jazz Heritage through archives, visual culture, publications, and public projects.
01
A living archive for Jazz culture
The Paolo Corraini Archive is dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Jazz Heritage: concert photographs, programs, posters, correspondence, notes, print proofs, editorial fragments, and sound-related materials.
Each document is treated as a cultural trace. The archive connects music, design, publishing, memory, and research, opening new ways to understand Jazz as both sound and visual heritage.
1958—1984
A narrative arc across clubs, festivals, independent labels, graphic experiments, and local Jazz scenes.
Jazz Heritage
The relationship between music, typography, images, memory, and cultural preservation.
02
Jazz as a visual and cultural document
From record sleeves to screen-printed flyers, the archive reads Jazz as a visual language too: rhythm, improvisation, contrast, and composition become tools for understanding the page, the image, and the historical record.
