“La linea orizzontale ci spinge verso la materia;
Quella verticale verso lo spirito.”
Last Tuesday, one of the greatest artists our world has ever known passed into the next phase of the existence he so profoundly contemplated through every breath of his earthly life.
Following my spontaneous words in honour of this immortal genius, I offer here a visual tribute to Franco Battiato’s luminous spirit, a limited edition print born from gratitude and admiration.
Its warm, radiant hues reflect Battiato’s thirst for Truth, a truth he pursued through music, poetry, and silence alike. His art was a living testament to passion, transcendence, and the courage to seek meaning within an increasingly alienated world.
Thank you, Maestro. May we all listen.
