Natale Nazista

A flock of memories activated by various musical exercises, to strike the past to the heart, to build something utopian: the future, a sonic architecture. Music as a tool, transcriptions of YouTube tutorials as poetry, percussion exercises as descriptions of reality.

A contrada retraced at a distance of years finds its vanishing point in the image of Castel del Monte. The building, characterized by the recurrence of the number eight, loses its firmitas to shine in the form of fireworks.

Uncle Pino is a hoarder: he lives among bags and clothes, electronic gadgets of dubious functionality, and Hello Kitties that light up. He navigates meanderings dominated by random objects, each with a story, a trace of a conscious, albeit atypical, path.

For several years now, Gianni Asdrubali's artistic research has been carrying on a discourse on the concept of emptiness, up to its development in an adimensional frontal surface.

The second instalment of Ignazio Fabio Mazzola's O series.

In 1971, painter Giuseppe Capogrossi, architect Maurizio Sacripanti and sculptor Alfio Castelli won a contest for an ‘artistic fence’ that would enclose the Faculty of Law building in Bari (Italy). Completed in 1972, this piece of public art is now forgotten and degraded. S MMM is a revisitation of the shapes of that fence, a homage to that passionate confrontation of practices that led to that project.

Considerations on the theme of origin, emerging from a few reels of Super 8: interiors of a house and a Sicilian landscape, emptied of its inhabitants by the act of editing.

A girl and her dress meeting the light. Part of the O series.

An artist begins a piece, his movements emerging from the patches of color still not perfectly absorbed by the paper. BB is a video portrait of Pierpaolo Miccolis, a visual artist from Alberobello (in the Bari area).
