Since the first impact the book donates strong and pleasant emotions, through colourful images and deep thoughts that immediately inspire joy and optimism.
In narrowly reading all pages the reader will discover a common thread carefully meditated in which the author, while explaining the meaning of abstract art, takes the reader on the exciting journey towards freedom, the same freedom that is well known to all the people who deeply love the sea.
"Where the sea becomes darker, I was told that the solution to all the contradictions of life was just there, in that sea. My Mediterranean.
Just open the window and you have all the sea for yourself.
Free of charge. To have the sea - the Mediterranean - is a lot, when you have nothing. As a loaf of bread for the hungry".
The bare, definitive, passionate words by Jean-Claude Izzo may well be a final comment to Daniela Troina Magrí's work. In her painting she talks about the sea and the images of which her mind is nourished are those of a particular sea, the Mediterranean, a place that is inextricably Earth and Water, a sea made of many seas overlooking peoples of East and West with their stories that intersect and intertwine inextricably.
The sea has "free access". Same the art which gives us the possibility of cum-prahendere, i.e. to "access" to the intimity of another person allowing him/her to become part of us, at the very moment in which understanding takes place.We realize once again that the world needs art to live in the shelter from any insanity. (Clara Rech)
