DESCRIPTION


This artwork of mine from the project

"W Sant'Agata - Catania in Pop Art" tells the story of Pier Paolo Pasolini, an Italian poet, writer, director, screenwriter, actor and playwright who arrived in Catania in 1959,

The city where I was born and raised, and between the baroque architecture he described as "fleshy" and the cultural salons, he fell in love with it so much that he bought a house there. "Pasolini in Catania" also speaks of my home, Piazza Stesicoro, where I spent part of my life nearby.

How many memories, among the comics bought at that newsstand I met Peter Parker,

Gwen Stacy and all the wonders of the MARVEL world drawn by the great

John Romita Sr. to whom I dedicate this and my other projects.

I could define "Pasolini in Catania"

the true home of my emotions.
