Roman years, 1975: About my painting
To weave a talk with History, and for a inborn predisposition towards evocative Memory, to set off on a Space/Time route recalling great experiences of straddling XVIII and XIX century Art and European culture.
Thus, one day, I reinvented a provocative Classicism, announcing it as a pathway to the future and to show that there might have been something imperfect in the Present/Current.
