manifesto

March 25th, 2009 – 11:26 pm

In communication lies the secret of evolution. Biologically and from an evolutionistic point of view it is almost immediate to identify in the capability of single-cells to communicate the key to the birth of multi-cellular organisms. The first molecules would aggregate to proteins or break apart only if they had a connection, a bond, a [...]

“Zarathustra’s gift of the overman is given to a mankind not aware of the problem to which the overman is the solution”
Lampert, Nietzsche’s Teaching, 18.
When will History be our new Light?

vestition

May 23rd, 2008 – 9:58 pm

No one, deep inside, wants a uniform.
No one desires to work badly.
The more conscientious he is, having a family or strong values, the less he desires to work in a “bad” environment and conditions.
The uniform is a violence: it creates a divergence between outside and inside, between work and no work, outside. As if it could be [...]

la vestizione

May 23rd, 2008 – 9:36 pm

Nessuno dentro di sè vuole la divisa.
Nessuno ha piacere a lavorare male.
Più è coscienzioso, perchè ha una famiglia e dei valori, meno vuole lavorare male.
L’uniforme e la tuta, sono una violenza: impongono un distacco tra dentro e fuori, tra lavoro e non lavoro. Come se fosse possibile distinguere, essere attori involontari o spettatori di un [...]

visual homogeneity

April 30th, 2008 – 10:16 am

Homogeneity of the appearance of a photographic image guarantees completeness to a body of images. It bundles them visually and physically into a One, a Unit, enforcing their weight and importance. Just as “the look” of a painter’s work is given by colours and stroke, canvas and themes so it is with a photographer’s work. [...]

Primavera – Botticelli

April 7th, 2008 – 11:19 am

 
Ricca, viva, piena e serena. Vecchia di oltre cinquecento anni ma sempre pronta a rinnovarsi di fronte ai suoi spettatori. “La primavera” impressiona ogni suo spettatore. Per le sue dimensioni, per la ricchezza dei dettagli, per la bucolica atmosfera di sereno umanesimo che trasuda dagli sguardi calmi, dai volti ideali, divini dei suoi protagonisti. Ma [...]

classic portraits

December 15th, 2007 – 6:13 pm

Every now and then I enjoy classic portraits. It’s something you have to try to understand what direct, frontal, one on one portraiture is about. And you figure out that it’s really more than simply observing an event or a scene, it’s interacting with it as well, strongly.  
 

blogs, webites, motion and interaction

October 4th, 2007 – 3:24 pm

Interaction by someone who listens the concepts presented by someone else is entertainment because it rises the number of degrees of freedom involved. So the result of the “interactive” communication is a lower degree of communication. This is the reason many people have decided to be in control of what they say. Just as Seymour, [...]

heart – cuore

October 3rd, 2007 – 2:33 pm

I was talking to my wife the other day while showing her which of my works are more “loved by the public”. She pointed me out they where the ones were my heart was. I smiled at her understanding once more why I love her. This is what I believe an Artist should do, give [...]

creation

September 29th, 2007 – 7:40 pm

Art is Creation. The creative act derives from the production of a new concept, object, idea, image, whatever applies to you best. Innovation must be evident. Without innovation Creation becomes Imitation.
Whoever creates is producing Art.

Art is Creation – Art as a Concept, Conception and Birth. My wife carries my son, Paris 2006. 35 mm B&W [...]
