Satvat for Walter Ambrosini
THE ART OF MEMORY:
A special exhibition, this one by Walter Ambrosini, and courageous. We live in an increasingly dehumanized, technological and alienated in a galloping globalization, of which much contemporary art and, unfortunately, the faithful mirror, suffering as an expropriation of the soul. Instead, this artist has focused the eyes of his painting in existential microcosm of his country, Castelgiorgio, working in this way a conversion of the same intimate motivation of Art, which is to reveal the mysterious roots of what would be visible only prosaic. For this to happen, you need to retrieve the existential sense of intimacy, of everyday experience, make memory not to forget who we really are. And in fact one of the great themes of art is the sense of identity of human beings, so we can recognize fragments are not lost in a chaos alien, rather than basing a sense of integration.
Walter Ambrosini has this search function of memory, which is also the memory of this, the territory closest to him, tracing the iconography exemplary and deeply human characters are far from characters that are not stereotypes but unique beings, seen with affective participation. Nothing is worse than being frozen in a character, trivialized with the tricks that the media have taught us, emptied of depths and contradictions. So far more fruitful, the subjects on which the author left eye for the rest of the painting are not lined up, dispossessed of themselves, in contrast, are caught in an individuality that is not plastic artificiality. The sensory contribution that the painter was able to exercise, dig the roots since the souls of the dreams that belong to each of them, showing how we can be heroes themselves, glorified by an extraordinary ordinariness that makes us the same as anyone else, and not codified. For this reason, each figure depicted is "true", and was pictorially immersed in a solitude almost lunar, which isolates it from everything, but will give the light of the preciousness of the one. Under the barber there are two people who have doubled in the mirror, indicating the importance of the social and everyday life in which the individual becomes united. This painting is actually full of implications, because it shows how everyone can act as a mirror, and even covertly witnesses the "function of mirror" that the paint itself should be able to exercise, whatever the artist will come to portray the canvas, the viewer must be able to evoke a self-acknowledged secret.
In this exhibition, which is dedicated to the memory of Castelgiorgio updated and current, meet again not only our neighbors, since this amplification of humanity, which can only evoke the Arts, comes to touch us directly, but reverberated by the individual, The theme extends to the sense of community that is living history of a country, but also it is also reflection on the meaning of human existence in general. For this reason, the painting depicts the wedding of the parents of the artist is strictly black and white, the device which crystallizes in an a-historical event that is timeless, so it becomes a symbol of parentage and ancestral foundation of storage, which makes this understandable and projects it in every possible future. At the same time it is placed as the tutelary deity that legitimizes an organic whole show, announcing that they love, for which transmits the heritage of life, and thus forming the collective life, to be protected by reciprocity and respect. Symbolically, Walter Ambrosini portrayed himself busy painting the marriage of the parents, and he does mean a deep understanding of the roots, memory transmission and archetypal in that he makes himself present, so he can observe with empathy the world around him , and then is made capable of telling a story with extraordinary effectiveness.
