Feeling and communicating the dark

[NeandertalMan]

On 4th October the exhibition «Siti Specifici: LUCE – BUIO» will be opened in Milan.

You’re referred to the official statement for what concerns the work, introduced by AEM Foundation and Academy of Fine Arts of Brera. This is certainly another nice occasion to see through places brimful of darkness, but of fantasy as well. It is also a way to let the youth approach the colorful hypogean world. I take this opportunity to thank the teacher Elena Busisi, for the involvement and enthusiasm she lavished dealing with this project.
