Self presentation of the anthological art exhibition of Marzio Tinti held on internet from June 2003 -2010

 

For the first time I exhibit my works on internet and this is a modern way to be known and to exchange ideas with other people. I believe that to understand art we must know history from Stone Age to the present-day. Primitive men-unable to draw-used to make hieroglyphs which were found in the places where the early inhabitants of the earth lived. As time passed men learnt to draw and represented what they saw. This is the Palaeolithic, a time when men discovered tools and started to carve wood and use earth to paint. They slowly improved their way of expression, history went on to reach middle age, then renaissance and thanks to Brunelleschi and Leonardo da Vinci; we reached the knowledge of perspective and proportions. After renaissance we entered a period of decay due to over-decorated figuration but with impressionism art could also communicate various feelings. Cezanne went through subjects and started post-cubism which - I believe - was an important step forward to modern art, expressing intimate feelings rather than exterior valves. Picasso understood the change that Cezanne had brought and gave birth to cubism with which art entered modernism. In the past we aimed to the perfection of shapes, now we want to express intimate feelings also coming from UN conscious. I want to add that even ancient Greeks studied intimate values while nowadays everybody is after exterior valves. New technologies conditioned options and tastes to allow industry and political power to make profit. Television and atom fission were big discoveries which were not thought of as a mean of destruction. They did not think that television could interfere with the perception of reality, changing thus the aesthetic conception of art and thoughts allowing the creation of an artificial-self. Wend we look at that art representing consumer goods or interior decoration which derive from conditioning of mass-media, we are not facing art but a substitute of mass-media. Works were there only because the experts who chose them were conditioned by the market or by the dealer who had business interests, and if also the choices of sure works of art are of dispute, they also re-enter always in the literal description and not for artistic expression, but the art has necessity of descriptive inner values and therefore they re-enter in the literature. I don't believe that art is dead as some art historian say because as long as human beings have interior valves to express, art will not die. The artist must have found his own intimate self to express it. The one who is able to find his own self is enlightened, the others are in the shade. I am Artista, painter, sculptor, graphic, engraver, restorer, gilder, poet, writer.My masters were the followings: the primitives, Bosch, Brueghel, Filippo Brunelleschi, Masaccio, Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti, Bramante, Mantegna, Sandro Botticelli, Van Gogh, P. Cezanne, P. Picasso, Kandinsky, P. klee, J.Mirò , Jackson Pollock , and so on. I have read and studied the thought: Talete, Socrate writing from Platone , Platone, Aristotele, Ippocrate, Leonardo Da Vinci, Niccolò Macchiavelli, Galilei Galileo, Immanuel Kant, Arthur Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Mesmer, Puységur, Sigmund Freud, Albert Einstein, Bertrand Russell, ecc. I have read more of 3000 books neglecting the novels that everyone of we ha sto tell its novel, and enganing itself , more than other on the universal conncept. I have made bas-relief since 1974: I obviously felt the need of making sculptures. I wan ted to get out of the canvas to break into the surrounding and add material to painting. There are some fictions intellectuals who pretend to be different and do a teamwork like scientists but this way the artist loose his own identity and becomes part of a collectivist plan. A real artist should not pretend to be an intellectual wearing a beard or being extravagant, because he simply IS. The covered way in order to arrive to these my last works, they still had beginning before my adolescence; aware of the historical evolution of an art, I left therefore from the classics. It was therefore that I began to study design near a shop of restoration of Lucca. I thought endured to express of the inner contents, rather than to tell scenographically. Before entering in the impressionism, I wanted vacant me from the residual academics and tried to leave from the primitive, with its magical, lacking in conditionings inculcate from the evolution. I think, in fact, that it is better to make descriptive a job of the content rather than, avoiding of falling in the novelistic usual, without to escape for this from the history in continuous movement. In far away 1964 I exhibited my works to gallery" La Lonza " to Trieste. It was therefore, that my first debut happened and I introduced myself with of the post-cubism pictures; later on it came outside my true nature, " the surrealism ", that expressionist spazialismo had origin from one. It was in this period that I exposed gallery " to the Schettini ", to Milan in 1972. I made abstract painting when exhibition again in the same place of art in the chief town Lombard, 1974. In 1974/1975 I undressed myself of all the lively colours and returned to my true nature " surrealism", this introspective time, reaching also from the unconscious one and evolutionary living. In 1976 and 1979 I exposed to gallery " Of the Ship ", of Renato Cardazzo to Milan, presentation me in these the important extensions that they marked my way of artist with one painting above all renewed. Already I the 1974 to do bas-relief; evidently feeling the exigency sculptor. The demonstration of this my assertion, is looked at from the sketches designed from me, many years bear not and put tinges to disposition of the visitors of the situated one, in this exposure. In 1995 I have begun to exit outside the picture and in 1997 I exposed to the fortress of Montalcino (Si) Italy . In this extension on Internet, I have tried to continue my speech begun in 1974 in the only Italian city that can considered European and international, Milan. I know well that many have been expressed in saying that " nearly all it has been said " in this century and therefore are little of new expressing. The human being is an only entity and sure, in the just unconscious and conscious one, it possesses of the values still to discover: this is my personal conviction and hopes not only mine. I believe that is still the space for innovations, approval the human nature is always highly in spite of the contradictions that to times have been come to create in these millennium. For an entire generation they are remained outside the turn of the gallery of art, but my absence from the cultural scenes has not made me to stop the possibilities of search and new artistic expressions. I believe of to have refined my creativity, and is what it counts and, task not to have endured the influence of the speculative turns. An artist, when he places himself of its work in order making art, bring with him all the genetic evolution and also that acquired one historically. Thanks to the reminiscence do not make it to ago work never in lone lines and its how much acquired one; adding an other brick to the construction of the evolution of the human species. who resolves inner I illuminates itself, while who does not resolve it disperses in the dark. My nature is a to steofita and, until this it will be my conviction, I will fight for my ideas. This happens from always, for as my way is conformed to be, and hopes to maintain the same characteristic also for the future. I hope I was able to explain my way of representing my own art and I thank everybody who saw this exhibition on internet.
