Who knows what Duchamp, a famous exponent of the French avant-garde, would think if he had seen us busy around a toilet, wanting to reproduce a new ‘Fountain’ – his ready-made work/urinal, created by the artist in 1917. The original piece, which was widely known for its sensation, was lost. Today only copies are preserved in various museums around the world.

Trump(oline)

This is why several minor sovereignisms have been born in Europe – and also Trump’s ‘major’ sovereignism in the States. A new vision of the world that manifests itself with multiple faces but which, in reality, operates in a very simple and tangible way: let’s take for example the ‘hot’ topic of immigration: one thing is the acceptance of diversity – the foundation of all civil coexistence – another thing is the compulsive magnification, to the bitter end, of diversity and the rights of minorities.

Arnaud Goujon, a Parisian Architect in Casentino

I had the distinct feeling that this meeting with the architect Goujon could be very interesting, from a human, aesthetic and cultural point of view. I had confirmation of this when Arnaud, after the initial presentations that broke the ice, tells me without hesitation: “I want people to leave me free to think. You believe, I think!”. A must-see is his exhibition at Palazzo Giorgi, in the ancient village of Poppi: “Itinerary of an architect”, with thirty plates that tell the story of his artistic career (12-31 October 2024).
