It seems to me that here my work, very short but extended over a period of twenty-six years, corresponds very well with the principal criteria of modern art: 1) originality that is clearly marked from the beginning and the firm decision to never do “the same thing” two times in a row, all by having an always-recognizable personal thematic and style; 2) understanding the society of its time, id est to explain it by critiquing it, because this is obviously an era that lacks critique more than apologetics; and 3) finally, being revolutionary in form and content, which seems to me to go in the direction of all of the “unitary” aspirations of modern art: towards the point at which it wants to go beyond art.
