, 1/20 f/6.3, ISO 100, hand held. Pavia, Italy.

Un murales del 2016 che migliaia di pavesi certamente ricordano (sotto il ponte della tangenziale, sponda SX, verso “La casa sul fiume”). Oggi ne vorrei conoscere l'autore, essendo diventato di macabra attualità, un manifesto predittivo di un futuro prossimo che è la nostra odierna realtà. La conferma di tanta miserabile povertà intellettiva che accompagna da sempre il genere d'appartenenza. Ripeto, con assurda ed inutile ostinazione (lo so) domande già poste a contorno di un'altra fotografia: chi ? – chi paga ciò che non ha prezzo ? – chi paga ciò che non è (sarebbe) negoziabile ? Il titolo dato a questa foto è volutamente incompleto riguardo al nome proprio. Ovvio che il pensiero vada all'opera di Samuel Beckett in attinenza, soprattutto, all'attuale mancanza di qualsivoglia certezza in termini prospettici, si chiami “terapia specifica”, oppure “vaccino” (il miraggio), oppure “ripresa economica” di una crisi ancora in divenire. Il “teatro dell'assurdo” non è più tale, è demolito, annichilito, da una realtà più forte dell'idea d'origine di Beckett. Questa è l'apologetica dell'assurdo. Il nome proprio è volutamente omesso dal titolo. Se il riferimento all'opera teatrale potrebbe essere congruo e pertinente all'attuale situazione, la personale, piccola provocazione attiene alla sostituzione di “Godot” con altro nome proprio, magari femminile, di identica iniziale. La bimba svedese fu ben scelta da una quasi-abile regia, quale feticcio intoccabile (bimba, bruttina, d'immacolata coscienza) ad esporre demagogiche verità, profezie dell'ovvio da tutti conosciute, senza un coinvolgimento diretto di alcun potere: mai esporsi in termini impopolari per richiedere sacrifici al popolo, per questo ci sono “i tecnici” o le ragazzine a salvaguardia di chi -…..ha la faccia e mostra solo il viso, sempre gradevole sempre più impreciso… -(Da “La bomba in testa” F.d.A). Roba da v.. , insomma, il coraggio l'abbiamo solo noi. Noi che si subisce la situazione con un esercizio del quale, probabilmente, non abbiamo bisogno, essendone già capaci. Ancora, altra analogia la trovo nell'opera di Buzzati “Il deserto dei Tartari” e ancora mi ripeto: il nostro miglior contributo alla situazione attuale la nostra migliore azione sta nell'essere privi di qualsivoglia azione, non fare nulla. Il deserto è quella separazione metafisica che ci divide dal Nemico, invalicabile per noi, che non lo sappiamo combattere, ma perfettamente permeabile a “Lui” che ci trafigge. La sintesi finale del romanzo di Buzzati (ripresa nel concetto da un certo signor Falcone) porta il protagonista a dare un senso alla sua apparentemente inutile vita elidendo non la morte ma la paura di morire. Ma, a “noi” non serve. Siamo già capaci di morire con insospettata dignità.

Every morning I wake up and look out the window.
Yedy the sun is there I'm happy and enjoying the blue sky.
Yys it rains I'm happy because there is a need for water and then I like to feel the rain on the skylights.
I'm glad to be able to spend so much time with my partner and work side by side in the studio we put together in the house.
I consider myself lucky because for now the people I love have not had any problems.
Looking calmly and confidently that we slowly return to normal, with the experience of becoming things accumulated over many years. Plus, I know I can't do that.

Topical theme, prophetic that mural. We live this disturbing situation with few certainties and many suspicions (to those you shaded we could add more). Something always escapes us ...
A greeting, Roberto

This situation shows us, but someone has definitely not understood it yet, as we are all but all small and vulnerable, we hope it makes us open our eyes
Foto beautiful

Photo Beautiful as well as the caption, I love your final sentence... "We are already capable of dying with unsuspected dignity." One of the universal laws and that we will all have a ticket to new goals.
Of great reflection, as always thank you Paul.
A hug your friend Peter
Infinitethanks for all the times you pass from my photos and give me time, I think the greatest treasure we have right now.
