Franco Di Cesare
Franco Di Cesares work slots itself in a predicament about futurism: 'landscapes' where the obsessive rhythm of the machines characterised by the total absence of the man predominates. But his machines are things without a precise identity (it might be said, maybe, fragments of things), because what the artist is interested in is the fame of the assemblage related to space. What props up are creations rich in dynamism within which the predominance of the colour blue gets interrupted by the lighting up of the reds, while the apparent precision of the shapes blends in a substantial allusion. But just because of this, his paintings also end up like a vision of potential topographic reliefs, a vision from above, substantially, where things lose their ipothetical, original identity turning into ambiguity: and the fragments never lose their reciprocal connection. In short, we are presented with a work and a research which deserves all our attention and appreciation. Roberto Vitali, art critic
