    September 21, 2023 / 0 Comments

    Me, myself and I

    November 27, 2013 / 0 Comments

    Numerosi sono gli artisti che hanno realizzato il loro autoritratto. Narcisistici ? Magari. Chi potrebbe essere il migliore modello che se stesso ? Dall’invenzione dello specchio nel cinquecento, gli artisti hanno comminciato ad osservarsi e dipingersi, benchè il termo “autoritratto” dia dal diciannovesimo secolo. Come un’autobiografia, l’autoritratto rivela qualcosa dell’artista, la sua identità, soprattutto una rappresentazione di lui che ci da a noi, contemporanei, un’immagine precisa del suo fisico.  Personalmente devo dire che amo poter mettere una faccia a un’artista sul quale sto lavorando. Mi piace sapere come era anche se, qualchevolta sono molto sorpresa (rimanerò molto cortese e non darò esempi). Facciamo esatamente la stessa cosa oggi, con la…

    Glass Mirrors and Serial Codes: A Glimpse into the Self Portrait

    November 16, 2013 / 0 Comments

    ‘You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.’ George Bernard Shaw The self portrait in its most potent form offers the viewer with a direct insight to an artist. On an superficial level we are granted a glimpse of the artist’s face. For the viewer it is interesting, exciting, and dynamic thing to be afforded this opportunity, as I believe it adds unconsciously to our perception of the artist. But why certain artists engage in this practise so frequently is a tricky one to answer. Is the self-portrait an exercise in convenience (no easier/cheaper model to arrange than yourself) or…

    Cuando el artista se mira de cara

    November 12, 2013 / 0 Comments

    Un artista, bueno o malo, no deja de retratarse nunca. Da igual que pinte un bodegón, escriba unos versos o toque estos acordes o aquellos: cada obra de arte es un resumen más o menos explícito de una manera de ver el mundo. De igual modo, cuando un buen pintor -o fotógrafo, o escultor- retrata a alguien, debe esforzarse por hacer de su representación una suerte de resumen biográfico. Sin contar con las facilidades descriptivas del escritor, el artista plástico debe, ante todo, volver visible el ser profundo del retratado, o sea, lograr casi lo imposible: que, al mirarlo, uno sienta empatía hacia un total desconocido.

    Une vita tra arte, passione e sofferenza

    January 11, 2013 / 0 Comments

    Frida Kahlo è un’artista che mi tocca profondamente per due raggioni : la prima, perché le sue opere sono ispirate da lei stessa e dei fatti personali della sua vita che non poteva esternare altremente che dipingendo. Sono umane e ne rissorte qualcosa di estremamente forte che porte a chiedersi, ma perchè ? Perché dipinge opere cosi nere, surrealiste, perché lo sguardo dei suoi autoritratti trasmette sempre tristezza ? (Ecco il mio sentimento la prima volta che ho scoperto il suo arte). Secondo, la ammiro perché era una donna atipica con carattere. E del carattere ne aveva bisogno per affrontare quello che è stato la sua vita. Penso fortemente che…
