MURANO FOLLIES

2011-08-03T15:11:00.002+02:00

At the Museo Poldi Pezzoli,
I fell in love with the glassworks,

Their vertiginous, complicated shapes
and delicate colors filled me with wonder!

Most of them were realised by the famous glassworkers
of Murano on the venitian lagoon.

SUNDAY AT THE FLEA MARKET...

Of course, I could not resist buying a wonderful pair of shoes...

A SCENT FROM ANOTHER OCEAN

2011-03-28T12:44:00.002+02:00

Few month ago, my dear friend went to live in Tahiti

a tiny piece of confetti in the middle of the Pacific Ocean

She sent me a letter and slipped dried Hibiscus inside the enveloppe.
The vahines use to make collars out of them.
I daydream about the scents and the landscapes she is discovering.

SUPER NEIGHBOUR

I'm going away in the counrtyside
to prepare many interesting things,
I'll be back next week, with good news
and good stuffs!!

Speaking of green and fresh air,

these are the pictures of Alessandro,

my super neighbour, making window boxes

he offered me for my 30th birthday,

in the early morning, ignoring the hudge

hangover of the party the night before.

Grazie ancora Ale!!!

THAT VERY BOOK

2011-03-02T17:07:00.011+01:00

I did and still do have favorite objects that inspire me. But the one I always kept with me as a child was a book called Le plaisir des mots. It was a simple selection of beautiful, strange, unusual or curious words, each one with its explanation and an image, a sort of refined dictionnary, indeed it is subtitled Illustrated poetic dictionnary. I was always making lists of the words I prefered, of course the lists were constantly changing. I remember myself spending hours pronouncing them and then trying to place them wisely into my conversations. I also often included them in my poems. I have no idea where the book is now, but now that I am writing about it I really want to go back at my parents' and retrieve that feeling I had, contemplating the beauty of the language for the first time.

SAILING AWAY

Today the weather is letting me dream about our last sailing trips. I sail and I really enjoy it, in Corsica, in Liguria, on Como Lake and of course... in Brittany!

GATHERING EVIDENCES...

2011-02-23T15:24:00.002+01:00

Last week, I visited the exhibition "Matter of action" at Ò, a very beautiful place in the quartiere Isola, in Milan. The exhibition presents many pieces collected in the sixties and the seventies by Giorgio Maffei, famous 20th century art collector. The wall is all covered with hundreds of photographs relating various performances, fragments of evidences telling that instants when the artists were choosing to bring their body into play. The photographs are presented reminding inquiry evidences which to me is a very relevant way to exhibit these fragments of artistic actions. Among many others I recognized: Gina Pane, Piero Manzoni, Marina Abramovic and Ulay, Meredith Monk, Giuseppe Penone, Nam June Paik, Yves Klein, Yoko Ono, Joseph Beuys. Can you find some of them on these pictures?

A DIFFERENT USE OF COLOR: BERLIN SWATCHES

2011-02-10T11:47:00.011+01:00

A few winter days in Berlin. First time. What striked me after my first steps outside was the massive use of color in collective housing architecture, with very subtle color combinations. I created various swatches, that I may use for my work. Have a look at this few samples.

Printerrors are due
to a sort of illness in the machine
just like pearls are a consequence
of illness in the oysters.
They are rare
and that is what
make them so precious...

2010-11-22T12:51:00.019+01:00

Last week, I took part in a workshop proposed by Alexis Rom and Claude Marzotto from Atelier Vostok. We have been invited to experiment the DIY offset printing technique using two-colour process. I was over-excited to meet the smell and the texture of the fresh offset ink again.

This is the image I produced

This one is an image produced together with Mercedes: she designed the red plate and I did the blue one
