Amo Revolmente

“AmoRevolmente…” stems from a passion for the ceramic arts—which serve as a source of nourishment—that evolved into an autobiographical narrative and has now become an exhibition event designed to inspire and share what I consider positive values. The “Competition for a Themed Work on the Immaculate Conception” is the first exhibition initiative I have included in the event; this creates an opportunity to support the Lega del Filo d’Oro and San Frumenzio (my parish in the Nuovo Salario district of Rome) through charitable donations, as all artist participation fees will be divided equally between these two organizations. Then there is the concept of “Solo Exhibitions in Dialogue,” featuring the artists' own thoughts and notes regarding their five displayed works—creating a sort of dialogue between the pieces and fostering a deeper understanding of the art itself. These notes will be displayed alongside the artworks. Many artists have welcomed the opportunity to participate in the themed competition on the Immaculate Conception, thereby further contributing to the cause of charity and solidarity.

As a tribute and a personal contribution to this event, I am showcasing works by several 20th-century artists whom I admire and whose pieces I have collected; they have deeply resonated with my own sensibilities and inspire me to believe that I, too, might leave a "small trace"—a personal mark—on contemporary art. Among them is Maria Grazia Bornigia (1923–2021), an artist who, as early as 1953, was widely acclaimed for her fantastic works centered on the circus and the realm of the imagination—themes I also explore in my own recent "White & Gold" ceramic works and installations. The selection continues with Giuseppe Castellani (1934–2017), Dario De Blanch (1945–2013), Stanislao Farri (1942–2021), and Elvino Eceoni (1950–2024), concluding with the recently deceased Gianfranco Pirrone and his work Mutteddi a Orgosolo. I had the pleasure of knowing Pirrone and exhibiting his work at events I organized in years past; his art is characterized by a highly tactile quality—specifically in his oil-on-canvas pieces—and serves as a catalyst for reflection.
