Someone said pictorialism? Carl Benjamin Christensen’s Häxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages has one of the best mise en scene ever seen on screen. The evocation of the scene meets the deep realism applied to the historic reconstruction and horror before horror is launched.

For me a painting is a portal into myself, a way to see and feel something in myself I haven’t experienced before. I remember the first time I saw a work by Dali in an encyclopedia when I was 14 or 15 years old. Incredible strangeness and familiarity. I never saw anything like it. It hit me in the gut somewhere. —– Temporary Triptych-The Encounter 2018 oil on canvas 80cm x 60cm each. —– #oilpainting #oiloncanvas #painting #pittura #dipinto #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #modernart #arte #artecontemporaneo #artecontemporanea #arteitaliana #artcontemporain #kunst #hamont #canadianart #torontoart #instaart #triptych #arthistory #landscapepainting #mothernature #oldmasters #mythology #forest #nature #goddess

This painting is based on a work by Titian-Diana and Actaeon. The man is taken directly from his painting and the woman is from a work by Corot. As I painted the dog I thought about Keith Haring’s dog. Indirectly this work is influenced by Van Gogh, the quattrocento, and Picasso to name a few.———

L’isola dei morti (prima versione)

1880,Collezione di arte pubblica (Öffentliche Kunstsammlung) presso il Kunstmuseum di Basilea

olio su tela, 111 x 115 cm

-

Qui er Bocklin te fa vede l’isola daa morte, che è na specie de cimitero in mezzo ar mare con na barca ndo na figura velata de bianco trasporta na bara. In reartà ‘a morte vera e propria nun c’è: io vedo un’isola, er mare, ‘a barca, ‘a bara, che sò tutte cose daa vita, che si semo morti nun vedemo né isola né bara, né potemo sentì er rumore dell’onda né remà su na barca. Se popo popo è, stamo a vedè ‘a morte de ‘n antro, no ‘a nostra. Sentimo però come un senso de quiete e de immobilità e de silenzio assoluto, che è come noi ce immaginiamo ’a morte, che nun sentimo o famo o vedemo più gnente.

Perché si ce pensi bene, ce sta come na difficortà de rappresentà ‘a morte, o quasi anche de pensalla, perché ‘a  morte è er non esse, e noi semo. Ce serve l’immaginazione pe descirvela, e pe descrive tutte ‘e cose astratte, ma no pe questo meno vere; anfatti nisuno se sogna de dì caa morte nun esiste, che sarebbe pazzo. Esiste, ma ‘a potemo definì solo in negativo o solo dar de fòri: quanno amo varcato ‘a soja, passamo a un livello due der videoggioco e boh, vedremo. Però, finchè semo de qua, ricordateve: tutti l’animali morono, ma solo noantri parlamo daa morte, e ce famo pure li quadri.
