“In the end there remains on the canvas the trace of a rite which dominates the identity of the signs and transforms them into the features and skin of that global image which is the painted canvas.”
“Therefore it is correct to say that this painting represents itself and its own making, more than its capacity for evocation, which in any case remains as an inevitably happy solution. And the onlooker stumbles on the traces and clashes with the event. If he feels dizzy, I would say that this is the result of a successful work”.
“The onlooker is never a passive subject, he is not a vase nor a funnel; without him the work does not exist, or possibly just survives and lies there, waiting for someone to come” (Giorgio Griffa).
The Catalogue, with introductory note by the artist, is available in the gallery.
