I BECOME A PROFESSIONAL ARTIST (1986)
In the spring of 1986, with the closure of the Reporter newspaper, I decided to abandon entrepreneurial activity by liquidating the SIPE Società Italiana Pubblicità Editoriale created only 2 years earlier. A very beautiful, but also challenging period was coming to an end which had prevented me from painting as I had done for more than 20 years.
But I didn't abandon the world of communication for which I had become a journalist 10 years earlier. The only change was the way of communicating, no longer with words, but with the images that had crowded my DAYDREAMS since I was a child. Even if only in those dreams did the WHITE KNIGHT always arrive to protect me from the abuses I received for my shyness and naivety. This is why since I was a child I had brought those images onto paper with pencil and crayons, drawings that were lost! These, together with the music I played on the piano both made me sail into the fantastic worlds of my imagination. A gift that I owe to my parents whom I gratefully thank.
That change of job was also of life and gave me a charge of ATOMIC ENERGY which sent me fantastic images of real life which crowded my mind and I threw myself headlong into the new job.
The first image was linked to an event a few months earlier when I went from Rome to Milan for work. City in which my twin brother Sergio lived who, at the behest of our father, had moved from Naples at the age of 18 (1966) to study economics at the famous Bocconi University. Sergio made me accompany him to his gigantic Mercedes and there on the dashboard I discovered a strange black object. I asked the driver what it was and he told me. “By the way, let us inform you that we are arriving a little late… yes, doctor, it's a mobile phone and yes, I'm in a car!”. I was surprised at the new thing that entered my brain.
So it was that, after the turbulent phase of the closure of Reporter and my company and the sudden decision to dedicate myself to art as a form of "communication", that image of the telephone resurfaced! Then the KNIGHT ON THE TELEPHONE was born, his first work and his first research as a "professional artist". POST FUTURISM, that world after the future that brilliant people had donated to humanity with their inventions: the computer and the mobile. I believe they were the 2 brilliant and positive inventions of the end of the second millennium that no one at the time could have imagined to what extent they would change life on Earth in the immediate future!!!
INTERIOR
The same year 1988, a few months after the start of "chromatic", the research "Interni" was born from the cult of the house that the Neapolitans have and moreover from the love that my mother Lidia had and that she passed on to me! From her, from a bourgeois family of aluminum industrialists, I learned that the home is people's refuge from the outside world; it is the place where family and friends welcome... Then I discovered that in Naples the house is the "portrait" of those who live there, whether it is the castle or villa of the rich nobleman or the "home" of the poor commoner! In Neapolitan we say "vascio", that which is "below" the street level in this case! All homes have the same decorum, love and respect for self and others!
After the first "interiors" of family homes (of my parents, brothers and mine), of friends and of various collectors, there was a new event. The "handover" between the "chromatic" works with the "interiors". With “chromatic” I had represented the suffering relationship of the human being with the outside world and other living beings… that is, my self-portrait of the first 40 years of life!
So the "interiors" I made the "inner" portrait of myself and the people, in the relationship between the external and internal world, that is, between oneself and other people, both loved and hated! But in any case not depicted or recognisable, the people in general that everyone knows and faces in life for better or for worse.
DIVENTO ARTISTA PROFESSIONISTA (1986)
Nella primavera del 1986, con la chiusura del quotidiano Reporter decisi di abbandonare l’attività imprenditoriale liquidando la SIPE Società Italiana Pubblicità Editoriale creata solo 2 anni prima. Si chiudeva un periodo molto bello, ma anche impegnativo che mi aveva impedito di dipingere come facevo da più di 20 anni.
Ma non abbandonai il mondo della comunicazione per il quale ero diventato giornalista 10 anni prima. Unico cambiamento fu il modo di comunicare, non più con le parole, ma con le immagini che sin da bambino affollavano i miei SOGNI AD OCCHI APERTI. Anche se solo in quei sogni arrivava sempre il CAVALIERE BIANCO a proteggermi dai soprusi che ricevevo per la mia timidezza e ingenuità. Per questo sin da bambino avevo riportato quelle immagini sulla carta con la matita e i pastelli, disegni andati perduti! Questi, insieme alla musica che suonavo al pianoforte entrambe mi facevano veleggiare nei mondi fantastici della mia fantasia. Un dono che devo ai miei genitori che ringrazio devoto.
Quel cambiamento di lavoro fu anche di vita e mi trasmise una carica di ENERGIA ATOMICA che mi trasmise immagini fantastiche di vita vissuta che affollarono la mia mente e mi buttai a capofitto nel nuovo lavoro.
La prima immagine era legata a un evento di pochi mesi prima quando da Roma mi recai a Milano per lavoro. Città nella quale viveva mio fratello gemello Sergio che, per volere di nostro padre, si era trasferito da Napoli a 18 anni (1966) per studiare economia alla famosa università Bocconi. Sergio mi fece accompagnare col la sua gigantesca Mercedes e lì su cruscotto scoprii uno strano oggetto nero. Chiesi all’autista cosa fosse e lui mi disse. “A proposito ora avvisiamo che arriviamo con un po’ di ritardo… si dottore è un telefono mobile che si una sono in automobile!”. Rimasi sorpreso della novità che mi entrò nel cervello.
Fu così che, dopo la fase turbolenta della chiusura di Reporter e della mia società e la decisione repentina di dedicarmi all’arte come forma di “comunicazione”, quella immagine del telefono riemerse a galla! Nacque allora il CAVALIERE A TELEFONO primo lavoro e prima ricerca da “artista professionista”. Il POST FUTURISMO, quel mondo dopo il futuro che persone geniali avevano donato all’Umanità con le loro invenzioni: il computer e il mobile. Credo siano state le 2 geniali e positive invenzioni della fine del secondo millennio che nessuno allora poteva immaginare quanto e come avrebbero cambiato la vita sulla Terra nell’immediato futuro!!!
INTERNI
Lo stesso anno 1988, pochi mesi dopo l’inizio di “cromatica, nasce la ricerca “Interni” dal culto della casa che hanno i napoletani e in più dall’amore che aveva mia madre Lidia e che mi ha trasmesso! Da Lei, di famiglia borghese di industriali dell’alluminio, ho imparato che la casa è il rifugio delle persone dal mondo esterno; è il luogo di accoglienza della famiglia e degli amici… Poi io ho scoperto che a Napoli la casa è il “ritratto” di chi ci vive, sia il castello o villa del nobile ricco che il “basso” del popolano povero! In napolitano si dice “vascio”, ciò che sta “sotto” in questo caso il livello della strada! Tutte le case hanno lo stesso decoro, amore e rispetto di sé e degli altri!
Dopo i primi “interni” di case di famiglia (dei genitori, fratelli e mie), di amici e di vari collezionisti, ci fu un evento nuovo. Il “passaggio di consegne” tra i lavori di “cromatica” con gli “interni”. Con “cromatica” avevo rappresentato il rapporto sofferente dell’essere umano con il mondo esterno e gli altri esseri viventi… cioè il mio autoritratto dei primi 40 anni di vita!
Così gli “interni” facevo il ritratto “interiore” mio e delle persone, nel rapporto tra mondo esterno e interno cioè tra sé stessi e le altre persone sia quelle amate che odiate! Ma comunque non raffigurate o riconoscibili, le persone in genere che ognuno conosce e affronta nella vita nel bene e nel male.
