the canvas waits, patiently.

both A3, both watercolour and coloured pencils on paper. the first i made while listening to paco, the second was an illustration for a kids' calendar i did not long ago. they're both in the shop.

shop!

i have a new shop! at the moment there are only original illustrations on paper, but i'm working on prints too. it's all new work! have fun!

ho aperto un negozio online, per adesso ci sono solo illustrazioni originali su carta, ma presto ci saranno anche le stampe. sono tutte cose nuove, ci si puo' accedere attraverso il link qui a destra, oppure qui.

back to the street

i'm back to selling cardboard and wood paintings, and making many new things for the shop i'm about to open.

bertani, dai!

the event organized each may by associazione b5 in trastevere aims to transform the street of via bertani into a world inside a world for one day of theatre, street performances, art, live music, and games for the little ones. it will take place this sunday 17th, against all odds imaginable and against all those who wish to suppress all forms of creative initiatives and reduce this city to a banale musem for tourists. have a look here to see the work in process, and here to find out more about this event. we've been working on this for a long time. stop by on sunday!

reflections from an airport

this is a painting i'd done last year for a collective exhibition on inter-cultural exchange. it is mixed media on canvas, 60x70cm. it was based on a text i had written a few years ago at an airport, the hopeless nostalgic years. nothing new. you can find the text in the comments, albeit in italian.

questo e' un quadro che ho fatto l'anno scorso per una mostra collettiva sullo scambio interculturale. tecnica mista su tela, misura 60x70. si basa su un testo che scrissi qualche anno fa in un aereoporto. niente di nuovo. il testo e' riportato nei commenti.

emma hewitt plays with light.

Ladies and gentlemen,
here are the works of Emma Hewitt, finally visible on a partially complete website. Her photographs feel like home. her pencil work makes you feel like you've never really looked properly, at the colours and shapes of things. I think I could write a book about miss Hewitt, but won't, and let her work speak for her. Never have her eyes and hands ceased to amaze me.

tre volte al giorno

questo l'avevo fatto, insieme ad altri pezzi, per le scenografie di un film che credo uscira' quest'anno. acrilico su tela grezza, credo 150x180.

i had done this, along with other paintings, for the set of a movie which should in theory come out this year. acrylics on unprimed canvas, i think 150x180 but i havent measured it.

Gerda Steiner & Jörg Lenzlinger

i normally don't use this space for purposes other than showcasing my humble works, but this is an exception to the rule. take some time to look at the works of swiss artists Gerda Steiner & Jörg Lenzlinger, you will discover an incredibly intricate universe of perfection. If all contemporary art managed to succeed, as this does, in fulfilling its purpose, the world would be a better place. thanks lidia for the word.

Passate qualche istante nel meraviglioso mondo sospeso dei due artisti svizzeri Gerda Steiner & Jörg Lenzlinger. Se tutta l'arte contemporanea avesse la stessa freschezza, il mondo sarebbe un posto migliore.
