That\'s interesting

That's interesting:<br>
<br>
Igor Mitoraj is a contemporary "young" (born in 1944) polish sculptor that in my opinion really "gets" today the classical spirit of the Beauty.<br>
He's not a simple "nostalgic" of the ancient sculpture like Canova, but a deeply, I repeat, "contemporary" artist. The best worth of most of his art, is the "end of an era" feeling, though its "manierism of classical themes" look at a first superficial glance. Anyway he's does not look totally pessimist, neither metaphisic or surrealist. His work is simply "detached" like the ancient art looks at us.<br>
You can see in his works more than a touched homage to the ancient sculpture that's not a banal experiment of copy: maybe you can see also the last remaining traces of the Myth in our "modern" people DNA.<br>

If anyone will be in Roma, an exhibition will be held at the Mercati Traiani till September 19. Some pics now, and note like<br>
those sculptures are not dissonant in that place...<br>
