    Lo sguardo della gallina

    € 14,40

    The hen’s gaze is oblique, transverse, direct, frontal and lateral, but only synthesis surrounds the object of understanding and meaning. The avant-gardes that characterised the last century, influencing and flowing like waves of meaning into the present, are reread by the gaze of musicians, photographers, actors, dancers, cooks and children, to become universal again in the scope and effects intended by their programmatic intentions. The manualistic path is only a pretext; an opportunity to delve into what remains to be remembered. Alongside are the voices of those who reread those poems, living them through the eyes of their art, discipline and profession. Their versions have naturally selected those avant-gardes that still live on in artistic creation today.

    In this intersection of planes, a further dimension is added, constructed by the gaze of Alessandro Sanna, who in turn dialogues with the description of the artistic movement and parallel suggestions through his refined and ironic brush. A transversal hypertextuality destined to open up further gazes for divergent readings, which will choose, follow traces or, like the hen, make synthesis.
