F.PIAZZA - THE VENETO: rich of waters...



"... noi troviamo Treviso nel cammino
che di chiare fontane tutta ride."

Fazio degli Uberti, Il Dittamondo, XVI sec.

"Tu scopri il capo tuo ne' campi nostri,
e gli umil pesci tuoi di puro argento pasci
nel fondo de' tuo' erbosi chiostri."

I.A.Benaglio, Rime XVI sec.

The waterways, whether they are the broad curves of the Sile or of the Piave, or the abandoned fishponds of the parks, are the great protagonists of a poetic trend in Piazza's most recent graphic works.

Mirrors of pure light, obtained by the refined use of blank spaces in which the surrounding landscape is reflected motionless, sometimes in the melancholic winter atmosphere, sometimes in the rejoicing radiant splendour of summer.
