Poetics

The aesthetics of the collapse has started the apocalypse, this age of total environmental destruction, on the background of ecology fashionable. In the post-digitalrevolution collide secularism and iconoclasm, fanaticism and democratic dictatorship, instrumental falsehood of the mass media and financial globalization, in a constant and uncontrollable mechanism of separation from God.

In this historical context, Piero Galli is expressing in the narrowness of democratic freedom, through different channels of expression, originality and irony, experimentalism and revivalism, often offbeat, surreal and realistic, more sacred than profane... Also he's been one of the first to recognize and historicize the "bird nest style", since 2012.
