LE TELE TOLTE

[..Michelangelo was said to have declared that "art is to take" and not "to put into" making a difference between art and decoration. But if it should be this then painting will never be art; may the "art to put into" doesn't exist. The touches of the brush remove the perfect empty space of the absolute white, they hide the orror of the last and unique truth. How long does it take to observe the white painting on the easel before beginning? How many sheets of paper do you fill with sketches in order to remove, with frenetic need, that empty space?.... you take, you cover, you hide, the last truth exorcizing l'horror vacui of the truth [...] And so we can remove that empty space irrationally, incomprehensibly, with passion, emotion, with useless and absolutely necessary thought, with disorder, in a word: with life! The most contradictory and fascinanting way of escape..]

It's a gallery, a place for the contemporary art that wants to be a point of reference for lovers and cultural attaché. It's a place that you can share with both the emergent artists and the established ones. It's a place where all the artists can exhibit their works in a particular and enchanting context like the medieval village of Calcata. In the gallery there are some sculpures, paintings and, particularly, graphic works by the great artists of '900: it's a way to get art more easily understood for people that want to do some investments. Le Tele Tolte was born thanks to the passion and the sensibility for the art of Laura Ramoino and Gian Piero Navarra who, with their cultural association, want to create a place where it's possible talking about painting, theatre, music, poetry, literature. It's a place where we can learn, have a confrontation with whom, that thinks, art must undertake its responsibility: being the only instrument to understand, to be free, to suggest new choices. If you want it, it will be possible to achieve this objective. In any case paraphrasing a great dreamer like A. Breton: [..it's towards this conquest that I'm moved, with the sureness never to arrive, but I'm too thoughtless of my death not to stand the joy of such a possession for a bit..]

The gallery is opened on thursday, friday, saturday and sunday from 10,30 a.m. to 19,30 p.m.
