Dear Artist,
as you are well aware of, the Visual Arts are not only a means of communication addressed to the general
public; they represent the depth of the universal thought “speaking” to the entire Humanity.
Your intellectual and artistic experience, worthy of your position in the world of Art as a Painter and/or Sculptor
and/or by any other definition, is based on a word dating to the origins of man's appearance on Earth: Love.
Right the Love that makes you able to realise, create and compose peering into the deepest folds of your soul,
beyond the immediacy of any compositional structure.
Even in spite of the appearance of a simple workmanship, your work turns out to be complex for having been
conceived and assembled - also from a psychological point of view - in rediscovering the primary meaning of
life.
Your Art, from time to time, reveals the deformations of a civilisation such as ours: as an interpreter of your
contemporaneity, yours is the insight into the present for the future, beyond the artistic grammar used.
It is in this perspective that the Visual Arts deserve their experiential value.
Art in the transparent freshness of a divine spring is a source of rebirth even for those with no academic title;
your personal pedagogy bears the seal of the sacredness of the Visual Arts, and your compositional structure
responds to a content expression belonging to the inexhaustible pages of the History of Art.
Indeed, the pages of the great Book of the History of Art created by the artists of the calibre of Caravaggio, are
marked by more recent artists whose pictorial and/or sculptural grammar is, at first glance, simpler and more
simplified, with no rationale, except the perfect harmony with the changing times.
As for your creativity, reading your Works stimulates the meditation towards transcendence and re-proposes
the theme of the supernatural and the divine in everyday things, in a world very often and sadly dominated by
the planning of ‘single thought’ and materialism.
The theme of compositional utility as didactics, represents the projection of a principle rooted since the ‘Night
of Times’ and, as such, requires an education based on love for God and for one's fellow human beings.
There is no Artist in the world, even among Atheists, who does not experience creative transcendence.
It is in the concept of Art History that lies the key to understanding life itself.
Love is always a conquest and follows a track through which, the Artist, measuring herself/himself, reaches – in
between ecstasy and torment - the deepest creative intensity of the human soul.
The greatness of your work is thus revealed in the individual's cultural identification as supreme good.
In a society where the sense of expectation is lacking, you succeed in placing an expectation that offers the
observer the opportunity to trust the greatness of the compositional and creative quest as opposed to the
widespread evaluative superficiality demonstrated by Art Operators keen on a purely exterior synthesis.
We, don’t.
We believe that the Works of Authors endowed with a distinct intellectual depth, who recognise themselves in
our associative principles, represent the ‘Spiritual Lymph’ that makes the roots fertile, which in turn, give life to
the germination of the of the ‘Divine Seed of Art’: nourishment and guidance for the future Generations
handing down the art essence from Father to son and from sons to sons coming into the world.
We look forward to having you with us on Saturday 7 December in Lecce, to meet you personally.
