Publisher Description

To understand less, to be ingenuous, to remain stupefied: these are reactions that may lead us to see more, and to take account of what lies deeper, what is closer to nature (Ginzburg 13). I told myself: I have to react and make products that are as inconsumable as possible. I know it's utopian, because everything ends up being consumed. At the same time, I know that there is something inconsumable in art, and we need to stress the inconsumable quality of art. Therefore, with all my forces, I will try to produce difficult and indigestible works (Pasolini, Le regole di un'illusione 190).
