...the hope to be able to conjugate again nature with culture...


In a certain sense we can be affirmed that the aesthetical search of Roberto Bozzi perhaps stirs fundamentally in the pursuit of the prey more difficulty and fleeing of the territory of the visual arts

In an expression that he maintains faithful to the register of the element show up her, Roberto Bozzi foresees the insertion of the forms of the fantastic escape however, of the flight of the imagination and the procedure of abstraction, because the artistic operation doesn't extend to an objective surrender of the world, how much to an open perceptive estrangement to lyric lightings.

Through the use of a non naturalistic illumination of the pictorial scenes, that they pass from the diffused luxuries to sabred her of light, with the choice of a chromatic outfit that escapes the purely mimetic approach with the reality, the artist cremonese doesn't pursue the objective to transfigure the truth, but to gather it - almost to catch it - in its moments of undeciding, of indefinite presence, of objective metamorphosis.

In a certain sense we can be affirmed that the aesthetical search of Roberto Bozzi perhaps stirs fundamentally in the pursuit of the prey more difficulty and fleeing of the territory of the visual arts, the movement, to gather not it through analogical, or symbolic procedures, always inevitably artificial, making banal or reductive, but in total tuning of form and direction. The figurative sensibility of the author doesn't look for the contrast between the elements and the lines compositive of the shot but, contrarily, their harmonica solidarity.

The strength of the author is really in its ability to work on the connections color and light, purifying the images of their carnal opacity and grafting on those bright striations the ampleness of a range of tones that contemplates the vanished fading and the rapid chromatic lighting.

If for every artistic operation it is a fundamental feeling that directs the interventions, that of Roberto Bozzi I think that is the hope to be able to conjugate again nature with culture, to be able to order in one "representation" a contemporaneity that appears, in its inextricable disorder, reluctant and fleeing; and this confident attitude in the future, explains perhaps the prevail, at the end, of its visionary conception on that fiction.
