Inadequacy Concepts like art and life must mix with each other because there is no point in keeping a distance between human activity and the human. Life is art (creative energy - sexual) Who said that? This is the reason why the most fascinating art is one which talks about life, which unravels different experiences, recollects the details, curiosity, and viewpoints.

In the realm of life, it is essential to disbelieve the notion of a perfection to be attained (in order to respond to such expectations, the only art that we can think of is that of the cinema). Error is the hallmark of being Human, the stumbling block that we've every one of us at one point or another: the faulty judgement, impulsiveness, fear, anger, the incessant search for security and control, wrong choices. Don't you dare say you've not made one of these errors?

Open: new perspective to view the world from If we slip, we hurt our bodies more or less and are prone to judge the cause of our fall, and to think the error as a result of the expectations we hold of ourselves and other people. The wound is the actual point where we can are able to see the truth, from which we stop taking refuge in the idea of perfect (which in the event that it was so would not be a problem) and look at what's damaged: we examine the wound and examine ourselves.

Fontana cut her hair with the consciousness the possibility of opening up, breaking or tearing because destroying is often the most creative act, particularly in a world where, from an early age, we are immersed in a deeply ingrained model of belief and values. It is no coincidence that Fontana said in 1963 in an interview Nerio Minuzzo:

„The critics have always been a slam on me, but I have never was concerned about it. I went on regardless and I didn't take anyone's salute. In the past, they called me „the guy that has the holes', with a bit of pity. But today I see that my cuts and holes have earned me a reputation and are widely accepted. They even find practical applications. In bars and theatres they have ceilings made of holes. Because today, you see that even people on the street understand the new designs. The artists are the ones, unfortunately, who understand less '.

When Fontana talks about street people, he evokes the idea of imperfection in which the hole is a shape that is similar to every other one in which the becoming of life is manifested. Fontana isn't afraid of the dirt, nor the brutality of his creative work and throws tar at the sculpture of a man and calls it 'Black Man'.

The cut becomes the conquest of space, in the form of an overthrow of painting and sculpture, through a new form of space which combines them: an end to verticality to create an open passageway.

The palpitation that occurs, both inhaling and exhaling the canvas is reminiscent from afar, in a more intellectual and bourgeois sense, of the work that Gina Pane would later do on her body: the gesture is nonetheless the immortal character in the context of art is bound to be destroyed. The wound and the cut are the path, boundary and exchange. The artist breaks the canvas in two and proclaims the canvas's finiteness. the holes are transformed into black holes, which give depth and make us perceive the vastness that we never understand.

We are waiting for new discoveries that we haven't discovered yet Fontana described the cuts as „Waits,“ openings that allow new and different things arise which we do not have a clue about.

When we make mistakes, and cause harm or injury to another, we have a waiting time before the reaction. The first reaction is the shock of the error and the failure over, then figuring out what way to go to rectify the mistake or get away with it and then waiting for the consequences of that fracture, that mistake, which could actually be a innovative and valuable resource. Or not.

A few people have understood (and do not comprehend) this philosophy because they are constantly judging what reality and the human condition are, in addition, affixed to the two-dimensional nature on the wall. We continue to defend with all of our might the best practices, the right way to present and function in society, so much that we turn to standards that end up defining the concept of normativity.

There is nothing more absurd than this. In our belief that we are experts that we do, we compare our standards to all other living organisms and ecosystem in the world however, in reality we are looking at it from a narrow and biased perspective that has nothing to do with reality: Anthropocentrism and individual interpretations of the other which are rarely the most accurate.

Accept that there is no absolute perfection. This also applies to this society that wants us to do our best every chance they get, without reflecting on the fact that maybe, instead of raising standards, we should learn to be more accepting of the world as it is. Do we accept pain? Do we accept death? Do we accept the bodies of others? Do we accept diversity? The most important thing is, after we accept, do you dignify?

Very often no is it that we are able to hide the things that do not match the 'perfection' of our very own planet or universe. It makes us horrified, angry, and irritated to be swept away, ignored, or covered up, and so we manifest the very imperfection that we really are, but we refuse to accept it.

Being aware of one's limits is crucial, as is realising the interconnectedness of everything in the world system: either we are ALL placed in a position where we can give our best, or there's no competition or effort worthwhile with the sole motive of increasing inequality. It's great and great that some people with a lot of effort have achieved it, like those who have been fortunate. However, in a larger context, always pushing the boundaries a little further the definition of 'a perfect' in an impermanent situation; not a 'Perfection' in the absolutist sense.

Can this be a reality?

Cut and let the truth be revealed We can conclude that Fontana was a tinkerer, as from the very beginning he rejected the easy ways to be successful, opting instead to explore the unknown and unpredictability, which means he decided to leave the pretense of being the one and following the research path that led him to unravel some facts.

For me, and in my personal perspective, Fontana is the one who tears open the curtain and lets light through, even if the black sails are obscured behind the cuts. An artist of spatial art and one of the forerunners of that art understood not just as a piece of work, but also as a gesture an act, in and around it. as a result of action on the space, as the activation of narrative, which is a large part of what is practised today.

For me, his cuts illuminate all these, opening new perspectives for art and new perspectives on the world , and new questions. The wound that he has caused is more than pain: the wound highlights the fragility, www.openlearning.com mortality, and fragility. Wounding makes us question as well as make us doubt how we can improve our lives, and this practice is vital to ensure that we remain grounded. As difficult as it is to endure and as hard as it is in a perfect story of existence it is ideal (and appropriate) to learn through positive reinforcements, as long that we as a nation do not want to be a part of the suffering of others as well as our own, we are bound to remain in the unsolved and incomplete reality.

So let's enjoy the cinema and its happy endings its beauty that we take as a given and which we mistakenly end up taking as a model of life since the visual arts, however are the children of pain, and every artist, in order to speak the truth, had to go through the pain.
