"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Piena di ammirazione per Caparezza

Nonché piena di una sorta di angoscia ancestrale. Perché il nuovo album di Caparezza è un bel ritrattino dell’Italia, la sua musica pouò piacere o non piacere (e personalmente non ci impazzisco), ma all’infilata delle tracce di Le dimensioni del mio caos non si può restare indifferenti, specie se come me si inizia ad avere l’horror vacui a vivere in Italia.
Tanto per cominciare, Le dimensioni del mio caos è un album che racconta una storia come il migliore De André, una storia folle tra operai che vanno a ballare in cantiere (con l’accezione di ballare che vi lascio scoprire), massoni con l’hobby (ops, la lobby) dell’edilizia, un uomo di mezza età con la sua metà che ne ha meno della sua metà, acqua privata (talmente privata che l’hanno privata ai condomini), cacca nello spazio (meglio così, staremo più larghi: extraterrestri, state attenti, è in arrivo, voi siete artisti, fate i cerchi nel grano, noi mandiamo…), novelli Ulisse che ascoltano fascinose blogger arrabbiate e, naturalmente, Luigi delle Bicocche. Una storia folle. Ed è la nostra storia. Godetevi la dimensione del nostro caos.

Beauty and Ugliness: an exhibition

A few pictures from the recently closed exhibition on Beauty and Ugliness as an aesthetic paradigma in which what’s ideal and what’s grotesque melt together as sides of the same coin. The exhibition featured works by Brueghel (lent from the other exhibition at Palazzo Reale),
