Roberto Sanesi
Born in Milan, Italy in 1930. Painter, poet, intellectual painter, art critic, official translator of Shakespeare, and consultant for the Tate Gallery in London. He followed the "visual writing" movement of the 1960's and has had exhibitions in: Italy, France, England, Switzerland, Japan, USA, Canada, Senegal, Taiwan, and more.
In the publication "Arte Italiana 1960-1982", Sanesi wrote:
"With the term visual writing we mean to refer to the creative experiences which place themselves - with relationships, which are from time to time different an in the perfectioning of different operative strategies with regard to "normal" poetry - between the pole of the word and that of the image, between the temporal consecutiveness of the written-read sign and the simultaneism of the visual message." |
