guerra, una sorta di maestro storico per gli artisti che passano, l’uno dopo l’altro, dalla<br />

figurazione narrativa all’astrazione. Fornisce una esperienza complessa, quella del viaggio e<br />

dell’approfondimento, dell’indagine e della sua sublimazione.<br />

percorso rinfrescante per gli europei, anche, che sono allora alla ricerca d’una soluzione per<br />

abbandonare il vuoto d’un estetismo totalizzante.<br />

Forse tutta roba troppo complicata per i roaring eighties, gli anni ’80 del greed, della corsa al<br />

danaro decretata come fondamento etico dalla prima amministrazione reagan. intollerabili<br />

allora i pensatori, figuriamoci quelli della meditazione!<br />

ora quel ciclo sembra essersi chiuso nelle scatolette di cartone che i giovani eroi della<br />

speculazione hanno riportato a casa della mamma.<br />

inizia un ciclo nuovo, diverso nella sostanza stessa dei suoi valori. la depressione rischia<br />

d’essere più intima ancora che economica, almeno quella dei profeti che per trent’anni hanno<br />

dettato le leggi del bene e del male, nei bond come nell’arte. l’occidente tornerà a meditare<br />

sui suoi pionieri.<br />

of painting, in which calligraphy becomes a curious semeiology filled with light, whiteness,<br />

transparencies and ethereal veilings, had come of age. As a result, during the last war, he<br />

became a sort of historic master for those artists who, one after the other, were shifting<br />

from narrative representation to abstraction. he brought in his complex experience of travel<br />

and in-depth study, of investigation and of its sublimation.<br />

it was a refreshing process for the europeans too, as they were then seeking a way to<br />

abandon the emptiness of an all-embracing aestheticism.<br />

this may have been all too complicated for the greedy “roaring eighties” with their race<br />

for money decreed to be a fundamental ethical principle by the first reagan administration.<br />

thinkers were out of the question, so there was no way meditators could be tolerated!<br />

that cycle now appears to be packed away in the cardboard boxes that young speculator<br />

heroes have been carting back to their mamma’s homes.<br />

A new cycle is beginning, different in the very substance of its values. the depression may<br />

well be more inward and personal than economic – at least for those prophets who for thirty<br />

years dictated the laws of good and evil, in bonds as in art. the West will once again reflect<br />

on its pioneers.<br />
