Imperfection Concepts like art and life should be mixed with each other since there is no reason for maintaining a separation between human activity and the human. The art of life is a form (creative energy - sexual), who said that? The most fascinating art is one which talks about life, which unravels different experiences, recollects specifics, questions, and perspectives.

When it comes to life, it is necessary to disbelieve the notion of a perfectionism to be attained (in order to respond to expectations of this sort The only art we could refer to is the film industry). Failure is the hallmark of being Human, the stumbling block that we've all fallen at one time or another: the faulty judgment, haste or https://www.tumblr.com/buckleycallahan38/706802128326393856/the-truth-about-lucio-fontana-in-4-little-words anger, the unending desire for safety and control, wrong choices. Don't you dare say you've not made any of these mistakes?

Open: a new perspective to view the world from If we fall, we hurt ourselves more or less and are inclined to judge the cause of our fall, and to think that the error was a mistake because our expectations set of ourselves and other people. The wound is actually the point where we can see the truth. It is from here that we stop taking refuge in the false notion of perfection (which in the event that it was so shouldn't be hurting) and look at the things that are broken. We look at the wound and examine our own self-image.

Fontana cut her hair with the consciousness of breaking, opening, or tearing since destruction is often the most powerful artistic act, all the more so in a world that, since a very early time, we are ensconced in a strong, impregnating systems of values and beliefs. It is no coincidence that Fontana stated in 1963 in an interview Nerio Minuzzo:

„The critics have always criticized me, but I never thought about it. I just went with it and I didn't take anyone's salute. In the past, they called me 'the one with the holes' with a bit of pity. Today, I realize that my holes and cuts have created a taste and are widely accepted. They even have practical uses. In bars and theatres they create ceilings using holes. Since today, as you can see that even people who walk by understand the latest forms. It is the artists however, who are the only ones to understand more '.

When Fontana refers to street people, he evokes the image of imperfection where the hole is a shape similar to any other, in which the becoming of life is manifested. He is not afraid of the dirt, nor the violence of the creative act: he throws tar on an artifact made of plaster of a human figure and calls the piece 'Black Man'.

Years later, the cut transforms into the conquer of space, in the form of an overthrow of painting and sculpture, through a new form of space that contains them both: a break from verticality in favour of a crossing passage.

The palpitation that occurs, both inhaling and exhaling of the canvas can be seen from afar in a more cerebral and bourgeois sense of the work Gina Pane would later perform on her skin. The gesture is nonetheless the immortal main character in this context, where art is bound to be destroyed. The cuts and wounds are the path, boundary and exchange. The artist herself opens the canvas in two and declares it to be finite. the holes transform into black holes that give the illusion of depth and reveal the infinite , which we'll never know.

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

When we make an error, or end up hurting or causing harm to someone else one, we must wait a certain period of time before we can react. First the shock of the error and the failure to be overcome, and then figuring out what steps to take to make up for it or avoid it Then we await the effects of the fracture or error, which could be a brand new and great resource. It could also be a waste of time.

Few understood (and understand) this philosophy , as they constantly judge the way that human beings and reality should be, too used to the two-dimensional nature that is the nature of canvas. We fight with all of our might the correct ways, the best way to present and function as a person in society, that we rely on standards that end up defining the concept of normativity.

Nothing could be more incoherent. Convinced that we know everything and everything, we apply our standard to all other living organisms and ecosystem on the planet However, we are looking at it from a narrow , biased point of view which has nothing to do with reality: Anthropocentrism as well as personal interpretations of other theories which are rarely the correct ones.

Accept: there is no perfection in the absolute sense. This is also true for our society, which demands to be the best every chance they get, without reflecting on the fact that perhaps, rather than increasing standards, we need to become more accepting of what is, just in the present. Do we accept pain? Do we accept death? Accept bodies? Do we accept diversity? Most importantly, after we accept, do you honor our diversity?

Very often no is it that we are able to hide the things that do not match the „perfect“ nature of our very own planet or the universe. This causes us to be shocked, angry, disgusted to be swept away, ignored, or covered up, and so we manifest our imperfections, which we really are, but refuse to accept.

Being aware of one's limits is crucial, as is realising the interconnectedness of everything that is the world system: either we are ALL put in a position to give our best, or there is no incentive or competition worth the effort with the sole goal of creating inequality. It is all well and good to know that some with a lot of effort have achieved it, just like those who have been fortunate. However, in a larger context, always pushing the boundaries just a bit further, it will be 'a perfection' in an imperfect setting; there is no 'Perfection' in the absolutist sense.

Does this even exist?

Cut Let the truth come out We can say that Fontana tried, because from the very beginning he rejected the easy routes to success, and opted instead to explore the unknown and the uncertain, that is to say, he renounced the pretense of being the one, he followed the path of research which led him to discover certain truths.

In my personal opinion, Fontana is the one who tears open the veil and lets the light in, even though there are black sails that obscure in the background. A spatial artist as well as one of the forerunners of the art that is understood not solely as a work, but also as a gesture an act, in and around it. as a consequence of action in space, and performance as the expression of a narrative, of which much is practised today.

For me, his cuts reveal all of these, opening new perspectives to art, new points of view on the world , and new questions. The wound, for this, is not just pain, the wound reveals mortality, brevity, uncertainty and fragility. The wound makes us think, makes us question the way we think, and this is very important to stay in the right place. As difficult as it is to be a victim and as difficult as it would be in a perfect tale of life it is ideal (and appropriate) to learn only by positive reinforcements. As long as we as a society are unable to avoid each other's suffering as much as our own, we are stuck in the unsolved, and to live in an unfulfilled reality.

So let us enjoy the cinema and its happy endings its beauty that we take for granted , and that we misunderstand and take as a template for our lives, because the visual arts, on the other hand are the children of suffering. Every artist, in order to speak the truth, must traverse the pain.
