DESIGN 2004
Particularly nowadays, what the object exhales is very important, because
it let us recognize and love a place and becomes a vehicle of values expressed
by the designer such as art witnesses, in the full sense of the word. Its aim is not only an economic target for the firm, but also the extension of the cultural field. Our era has engaged to extend this cultural field with the new awareness of photography, fashion, graphics,architecture.....and design. Art is being enriched by another field considered undeserving till nowadays due to well-known prejudices. Who makes 'design'at present has to cultivate himself in poetry, music and art, because especially in these fields there are incitement and sensibility for a possible verification.
2004
My first artistic study goes back to 1984, but I had already drawn since I was a child, whit a range of drawings on paper investigating abstract themes with constructive patterns of a strong chromatic impact using primary colours inside geometric schemes whith a rationalistic definition. The following development led to a succession of works based on sign interactions given by geometric signs and shapes with a variable density over different points of view which drive me towards more expressive researches. (1984-1985-1986). After some years (1988-1989-1990)supports went from paper to wood with a series of works in which the gestural and informal matrix added to the previous researches with the contaminations of
different materials: cardboard, sheets, fibreglasses, sands mantaining a project structure inside the work which can be actually detected in the late works (2003-2004). In these works there is a more and more architectonic research of the painting which combines different materials on staggered bodie and planes with an almost sculpturesque sensation, on the whole. The work arises from a well-definite project, in which the formal creation defines what I call 'TOTEM' with a strong symbolic value, emphasizing intersecting and superimposing, shapes and materials
creating a strong-tone and strong-identity connotation.
1997
My last works are based on energy, violence and dynamism of the sign which
becomes, in a provocative way, an immediate display of my own and of an aggressive and pragmatic attitude towards reality, which is a logical consequence of a life spent every day without deceptions. My painting has no uncertain terms: the work becomes pure energy of life to be caught in the sign purposes of the space, a daring provocation which exalt action but not contemplation on of the reality which manifests itself in the sign-gesture taking on the fourth-dimension values. I carry out a direct system in painting using very clean colours and counting on a psychic automatism which,in my opinion, is an italian concept which goes back to Boccioni (personal opinion). I try to avoid every preciosity in the art looking for an aggressive structure which gives tone originality in its expressive and provocative force.
