Violenti, scostanti, scorretti. Gli eretici interpretano il tema della salvezza in ostinata opposizione con l’opinione e il gusto correnti.
Rapita tanto dalle altezze quanto dalle bassezze, la loro opera multiforme rivolge lo sguardo alle urgenze della poesia e della verità,
l asciando che pensiero e biografia siano un’unica cosa.
Gli eretici di questa mostra sono tra gli altri Gianluca Lerici aka Professor Bad Trip, Mattia Moreni, Cristina Campo, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Carmelo Bene,
Sylvano Bussotti, Enrico Colombotto Rosso, Federico Tosi, Sergio Vacchi, Giannetto Fieschi, Amelia Rosselli, Pietro Ghizzardi, Cosey Fanni Tutti,
Guido Costa, Ugolino, Maria Sole. Esempi di anticonformismo che fanno della follia, della provocazione o della perversione un elemento disturbante eversivo e non assimilabile

Some people know MP5 for his large mural works, others because his creations have become symbols of transfeminism and queer culture. His works have been exhibited all over the world and have appeared in major newspapers. In this book, MP5 has collected years of his production for the first time, selecting and reordering images based on three declinations - Erotic Corpus, Hermetic and Heretic - to recompose the story of his artistic practice.

“Everything that acts is a cruelty.” – Antonin Artaud – “Separated from each other by the general loss of any language adequate to describe the facts, in the conspicuous consumption of nothingness.” – Guy Debord – We go round and round in big circles just to come back where we started. A narrative sequence with no end, no beginning, lost in an eternal comeback made of silence and bold lines. No words, only sawed off images that leaves breathless. The many stories told in the book are made of distortions for shut eyes. Pages connected as if they were in a sort of accordion of boundless imaginative power. Scenes, connections, power and strength dynamics clash and struggle, fading away and coming to life. Like if dying and living wasn’t enough. A road with no directions to come back home. The whole book is a palindrome in which the characters are actors on a stage/landscape, frozen in actions that reveal two possible interpretations, they can be read in a way or another. a small installation rather than a book, its pages connected in a visual accordion that goes from the first to the last and goes on the back. To unfold the whole book it’s necessary a big floor where it can be laid, To close it requests the same meticulous skills used to fold maps. This sequence of scenes – that invade each other without interruption, switching like movie scenes that despite their differences are in the same tracking shot – it’s a silent book. Not only because it has no words in it: it’s silent because silence is the sensitive quality of image, transcends from all its characters, players in stories with clear effects but unknown causes. Silent is the house on which the rails go through, in the image right after the cover, the house that raises in the night showing its wrecked foundations as roots to the indifferent look of a chicken, silent is the farmer on a carpet of eggs or stones keeping a chicken whose neck he just broke, not so far a gas station watching dull nothing, silent are the kids, the families. Palindromes is a black tale in which nothing is what it seems, a tale in which good and evil mingle and judgement is wiped out. Dimensions cm. 23x33 26 pages hand screenprinted and handbound. 2012

Totem by Nora
Totem is a book created, written and illustrated by Nora. An exciting and unforgettable inner journey that the reader cannot avoid facing. Page after page, almost without uttering a word but with the sole force of the very powerful images, the book challenges you and continues to do so, in an ever new form, every time you choose to undertake the journey through its pages. Nora, an extraordinary artist capable of speaking with her art to the deepest part of each of us, has chosen to share this precious work. Thus was born the first comic that as Grafica-X we decided to self-produce and distribute, in 500 unique, signed and numbered copies, like a small treasure, a piece of art, to be experienced, shared and cherished. Totem is a story whose protagonist is a child without an identity, who wanders in a world dominated by nature. During his journey he finds himself faced with an unknown figure who begs him to stop: a Totem. The child is a wild animal, free and devoid of any form of bond. The Totem, on the other hand, has deep, hard and complicated roots. The child is what the totem is no longer, his last contact with that freedom and lightness of the past. The totem and the child have one heart, in different places of time. The desire to grow, to run to get to something, and the desire to go back. Unable to hold him back, he resorts to the violence of words, a violence that the child does not know but which he will learn with time and experience in the forest. It is right there that he finds shelter from the arrows shot from the totem and where something will begin that will change him forever.
Nora was born in Monterotondo in 1995. She studied painting and subsequently illustration and art publishing at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. She collaborates with various publishing houses and magazines for graphic novels, art editions and illustrated books and as a 2D animator for music videos and animated short films. She currently works as an illustrator and painter in Rome.

IL CANE MANGIAVA SOLO FARFALLE by Nora & Lorenzo Marvica
The dog only ate butterflies is a comic written by Lorenzo Marvica and illustrated by Nora, published by pièdimosca edizioni as part of its CATRAME series, dedicated to comics and illustrated books. Alex, the protagonist, is a shy and introverted child. Following the death of his father, he begins to write down his memories in a diary, in an attempt to exorcise and deal with the pain he feels. Alex's account is highly ungrammatical, at times incomprehensible, the periods1 and places overlap so much that they become deformed, completely altering the timeline and the characters he narrates about. However, the clear thread within Alex's story is the experience of mourning: his approach to the illness, to the disappearance of living beings (his goldfish, the neighbor's dog that gives the volume its title, his father ), to the pain and confusion of loss. It is the request, by a child who approaches death for the first time, to understand why such things happen. Lorenzo Marvica managed to script a short, but intense and impactful fairy tale, without a linear narration of events: and Nora, with her pastel line, which seems sketchy and dirty but at the same time extremely precise and refined, manages to convey it fully , affecting the reader in a profound way, moving his emotions, making him fully perceive the emotions of the young protagonist. The edition is very pleasant, resistant and easy to handle. The binding and paper weight allow you to fully enjoy the illustrations and fully immerse yourself in the story without ever risking ruining or damaging the volume.
