The Filippo Biagioli House Museum in San Quirico Valleriana, Italy, has officially launched an international call for entries, open to all those who "create" through words: writers, poets, and journalists. The initiative opens with a contribution by Italian poet Elisabetta Corti, who has dedicated an intense poem to Filippo Biagioli's artwork "Guardo le stelle".
The project was born with the explicit aim of creating a ritual bridge between the primordial signs of analphabetic art and the poetic word, transforming aesthetic observation into a permanent written testimony.
Below is the poem written by Elisabetta Corti:
“Unleashes the sacred circle
tortured soul moves
moves immense fluids
impossible work for every being
ancient rituals continue to happen
water
salt
carved symbols
become instruments
cold light
hides millions of cosmic fireflies
carts are born
fauns and polar references
wakes up eager hidden beings
gives pasty skins
remains only a moment
in the wood knot
but no human being instrument
can replace the cycle of time
analphabetic art converts the unintelligible into a sign
the man is all and nothing is
fireflies and burning metal”
