ARTISTIC RESEARCH
Express the vision of man as being bipolar, at the same time “mind and machine."
Federico Barbieri for the representation of man builds realizing that the very existence of the human being, a bundle of nerves and muscles, connected and on the move: connected with their higher faculties and moving space-time.
What is within each individual, flow of thoughts, ideas, chemical reactions can not be separated from a relationship with that which is beyond their own, and with the reality that surrounds him.
The artistic career of Federico extracts and processes from the lessons of the masters of the early avant-garde, Picasso one of his sources of inspiration, overcoming the distinction between modern and ancient, current and outdated, using everything it considers useful to the construction work.
