I mean art as a practice and exercise of the democratic values and tolerance in which I believe.

I share the democratic values of the European Union. I am an enthusiastic pro-European.

I stand in solidarity with refugees, migrants and stateless people for an open Europe without racial, genders and religious discrimination.

A European Union that promotes respect for human dignity and individuality.

A European Union that says “No!” to hatred and violence.

This is the only way art can have meaning in our time.

ON STYLE

Style, in all the arts, is not the tedious repetition of a manner that imbues each story and makes it similar to each other, but rather the ability to find a new way and a new form for each thing you want to tell. When a discussion is exhausted, it is necessary to abandon that narrative, that manner, that form.

Thinking about peace

Envy, jealousy, resentment and excessive ambition are destructive forces.

Neid, Eifersucht, Missgunst und übertriebener Ehrgeiz sind zerstörerische Kräfte.

Invidia, gelosia, risentimento e ambizioni eccessive, sono energie distruttive.
