Ivan Crico e Rossano Bertolo a Baltimora
"The silver thread: a contemporary daguerrotype"

Il 7 Novembre a Baltimora (Maryland) presentazione in anteprima del nuovo lavoro di Rossano Bertolo e Ivan Crico: "The silver thread". Alla presenza di alcuni tra i maggiori studiosi americani del settore, verrà esposto per la prima volta un lavoro in cui l'intervento pittorico artistico diretto e l'antica tecnica del dagherrotipo si fondono, sulla lastra di rame argentata, per creare un'opera unica nel suo genere.

"THE SILVER THREAD
ROSSANO BERTOLO (DAGUERREIAN) & IVAN CRICO (PAINTER).

The work "The silver thread", wants to revisit, in contemporary key , the ancient custom of coloring daguerreotypes with the pigments. No longer a mere embellishment, but a dialogue between different languages, pictorial and photographic. The Sutratma in the Tibetan tradition, the silver thread of life that connects the self spiritual, to the physical body, also here a connection between two different sides - and yet intimately connected - realities. For represent the passage into another dimension, the painted image refers to an old photograph taken with a Japanese "ama" diver, which is descending into the depths of the sea linked to a thread, but in a reversed way, heading toward an reversed abyss.
