LOVE IS HOLLYWOOD

            La mostra To be or not to be approfondisce il tema del teschio, da sempre utilizzato nella storia dell'arte come richiamo alla mortalità dell'uomo, oggi simbolo effimero, privato della sua sacralità, di cui si appropria la moda, il design, ...l'arte contemporanea. Gli Orticanoodles ripropongono l'immagine del teschio in una serie di ritratti di personaggi mediaticamente noti, che vengono decorticati e resi crani vuoti. To be or not to be, il dilemmia shakespeariano, ci porta a riflettere su che cosa resta di questi uomini e donne una volta tolta l'immagine che crea il loro status. Attraverso la tecnica dello stencil, che utilizzano magistralmente, gli Orticanoodles ci mettono a confronto con la questione dell'identità, dell'immagine costruita, per far passare un messaggio. Gli artisti propongono delle opere, attraverso le quali lo spettatore si può specchiare e interrogarsi sul suo proprio apparire. Il linguaggio di Wally e Alita utilizza proprio i parametri visivi della cultura pop e della pubblicità per deformarne il messaggio e fare critica sociale. I loro teschi ci chiedono: che cosa conta davvero? Apparire o agire? Vivere o morire? To be or not to be?
