Sant'Angelo
I want to tell you three things. The first. Antonio Macrì, an artist from Ischia who died recently, would always put on his cover his works. I did it: there is a 1971 piece of it, ink and watercolor. He portrays his son Pino painting in Sant’Angelo. It’s a game of creative mirrors. In these pages there is another flash of freshness made in the same days on the marina. It is the sublimation of elegant radiance, exclusive grumpiness, summer rarefactions among the dreams of the middle age, the Seventies. Antonio’s brushstrokes, which were exalted in the open air to idealize the beloved island, suggest - as the great ones can do - a world and a way, the vital and progressive moment already completed in the landscape. We were inspired a little by him, as in a sketch, in this issue of the newspaper. It would have taken many more pages. Even if, in any case, the air of Sant’Angelo is not enough to read it, music it, listen to it, look at it, paint it: you have to stay there. No hurry.
