Bacchus & Art
Everything that involves the most sensitive human abilities can be classified as art.
“Artfully made” is a way of saying that means the creation of something that exceeds craftsmanship.
Dedicating oneself to winemaking activities, today as yesterday, is a commitment that goes beyond peasant handycraft.
“Making wine” is a noble art that distinguishes cultural excellence.
“Making wine” and “making art” converge in a single, creative realization.
In light of this consolidated evidence, for the undersigned it is not difficult to hypothesize a union between photographic art and the art of wine.
The history of wine goes very well with the history of art.
Caravaggio’s “adolescent Bacchus” is a symbol indelibly imprinted in my gaze.
My timid attempt is to consolidate an artistic contribution between these two ancestral human tendencies.
I hope that, upon viewing the photographic results, the public can appreciate my great engagement.
