Beppe Costa per Luca Colapietro
It might sounds strange but until there is someone who makes music or paints, someone who writes or reads, there will be some hope that the world will continue to exist. It’s not by chance that all we know and all we’ll discover about our predecessors is closely intertwined with art in all its forms.
It is very important to experience art since youth, since against the subjugation of education reforms everyone can, and must know, that without this essential element we would just be lifeless beings as if we had no eyes, no ears, no hands. We would be vegetables, or even worse.
I examine at these works of art with my eyes, my ears and my hands.
I touch them, I gaze at them, I listen to them so that I may get with my whole body to the place where they want to lead me.
If the creature is mortal, art, by definition, is not.
Art remains the privileged way to the pursue of freedom, despite frequent attempts of suppression.
Luca Colapietro’s artwork looking at the past, keeping an eye on the present and describing the future, is destined to win the test of time.
