Raccolta completamente diversa da ogni precedente pubblicazione, questa di Fabiano Alborghetti. Poeta solitamente di largo respiro, noto per i romanzi in versi, per la prima volta affronta la dimensione breve. Se fosse un romanziere, questi sarebbero racconti. È invece poesia, ma la limpidezza della lingua e la chiarezza della narrazione restano la sua cifra, riconoscibile e amata. Città, scavi archeologici, fisica quantistica...

Anna torna a Napoli dopo vent'anni per raccogliere indizi sulla scomparsa di suo padre. La madre le consegna una lettera in cui le parole sono un messaggio in codice tutto da interpretare. Il ritorno a casa e l'ascesa tra le scale del palazzo mettono in moto la pellicola dei ricordi e il legame tra lei e la sua amica Ada. I fatti si susseguono in quei giorni partenopei avvolti da misteriosi incontri. Presto la donna si rende conto che il pe...

Inizia così, al triplice spartiacque del Piz Lunghin in Engadina, il viaggio dell’autore attraverso la Svizzera alla ricerca di risposte identitarie non sempre facili da trovare per chi, come lui, è nato in Ticino ed &egr...

Since the prehistoric times, humans have developed a collective mythology that can justify their existence and, most particularly, answer to the questions arisen by the experience of birth and dead. The fantastic and the imaginary have always characterised the mythological narration, which has been developed at the same place with the artistic creation. During the centuries, and trained from the processes of industrialisation, globalisation an...

Sandro Glaettli has a proper sensitivity towards forests, photographing them with respect and gentleness. He has learned that the woods are made up of living things: the plants. They grow, talk and sing, develop in every direction and become similar enough to man for us to compare them, grouped together, to cities. "In spite of urbanisation forced on the land at the expense of generative nature, today the woods remain an important place for hu...

The story of the tin as a collection item started in the period following the war. The tin has entered the realm of museum exhibit in every sense, thanks to its singular combination of expert handiwork and industrial production, using a language of extremely varied images and shapes. In time the tin packaging has not only maintained its objective of container and preserver of products of various types, but has assumed more and more the role of...

Fabrizio Giannini travels on the surface of his computer and television screens, immersing himself in a flow of homogamous and antagonistic, frivolous or serious, engaged in a furious battle. Making use now of first one, then a different image that attracts or interests him because of the importance of its power of synthesis of grouping. His work becomes an area of negotiation between private sensibility and the surrounding culture. Giannini r...

Gol è un ex tossico che ritorna alla vita sociale dopo un periodo di detenzione. Più che mai intenzionato a dare una svolta alla propria vita, si trova un appartamento e un lavoretto temporaneo. Gli amici che gli ruotano intorno però sono quelli di sempre, in un modo o nell’altro ancora impigliati nel giro. A permettere a Gol di sperare (perché egli è un buono, senza rancore e a tratti anche un po’ sprovveduto) è il sogno di ricostruirsi una...

Capaci di riciclare i materiali di uso quotidiano, di evocare oggetti e situazioni con elementi imprevedibili, o ancora di realizzare costruzioni nel con...

The Spiritual Landscape identifies a charmed moment in the history of twentieth century avant-garde art -- a time when landscape, as a refuge for the soul and a source of spiritual nourishment, was equated with painting predicated on expressive colour and form. As the curators of the exhibition, Vivien Greene and Susan Cross, explain in the following essay, the theory of the spiritual aspect of art is directly connected to the origins of the G...
