The Exhibition: "I do not love shopping"
Women on the Verge of a desperate search for self
NAPLES - Dreamer and disillusioned, soft and elegant, martyrs, sensual, innocent, but most desperate of their personality, are women Giulia D'Anna, on display until March 31 to Feltrinelli di Napoli.
ACKNOWLEDGING 'SEX AND THE CITY' - Twenty stories by women that the adoption of Parisian illustrator Neapolitan soul with India ink of his pen, with the force of color, balance and delicacy of his collages. Behind the title, "I do not love shopping," takes a subtle and profound as life reflection on the meaning of shopping for the modern woman, blinded by the promise of granting leave within a few blocks, ready to do anything to get in, but ends up naked to find themselves deeply, hopelessly devoid of identity. Is explicit in this regard, a critical reference to best-selling novels like "Confessions of a Shopaholic" by Sophie Kinsella, a television series like "Sex And The City" or hit movies like "The Devil Wears Prada," which, sublimating some simple everyday actions, such as shopping, offering pre-packaged bags of personality to wear at the appropriate time for women photocopy, all the same, clean, aesthetically perfect.
Real Women - Women's Giulia are real. Some of them have wide hips, others wear glasses, and still others have uncombed hair or irregular faces. They are normal women, different from one another, yet united by the search of a cliché to which belong. There is the woman who has just bought her breasts and one that leads into the shopping bag a new brain, the woman dragging a heavy bag full of expectations, like dreaming than flying light that could become disoriented and wandering in the dark with a shopping bag over his eyes. If Gustave Flaubert declared, "Madame Bovary, c'est moi!" Giulia D'Anna could say the same of his creatures explained: "There is a part of me in each of these women, otherwise I would not be able to think of them. I also subisco the charm of shopping, but most times I stop buying the imagination and I find fulfillment in this way. I walk around the shops, try a bag, a hat, I see a kitchen that I like and I can tell, look at her and then go away. "
I DO NOT LOVE SHOPPING - The exhibition thus marks an important moment for the professional artist in Naples, not only because its inauguration in Naples, but above all because, with this exhibition, which develops a long artistic research that makes a simple ink drawing, the strength of the work: "For me, design is everything because it is there that is materialized in an instant the idea - said Giulia - The same idea that I like and then decline in various forms, in different ways - and continues - Professionally I have a lot to Richard Marinelli, who helped me in research as a critical form of illustration, as an attitude disturbing. Also I think I was particularly influenced by the work of Hungarian photographer André Kertész, depicting women's bodies, deformed with the help of some mirrors, and one of his Georgian filmmaker Otar Joseliani, appreciated for the subtle irony of his film.

Aldo Filiberto, 'target' in Hollywood Sicilian
Photographer and director, studied at the New York Film Academy
PALERMO - Live in Los Angeles on Hollywood Walk of Fame, the walk celebrities. Achieve Universal Studios, to attend lectures by John Carpenter (director of thing, Halloween, 1997: Escape from New York), Ron Howard (Apollo 13, A Beautiful Mind, The Da Vinci Code) or Buck Henry (writer of The Graduate). Walking inside the Hollywood sound stage - the hangar in which they are constructed sets - Through streets and neighborhoods of New York or Paris faithfully reproduced. Stop on the porch of a typical saloon, in a set western, and breathe deeply some of the most important chapters in the history of cinema. It would seem one of those lives by magazines and TV, one of those stories are able to remember the magnitude of land and sea that separates us from California. Yet this is the everyday life of Aldo Filiberto, a young photographer and director in Palermo around the world for almost 10 years. After studying photography in the UK and his portraits of faces and landscapes across Europe in 2001, thanks to a scholarship, joined the United States for a master's degree in Film-making at the New York Film Academy in Los Angeles. And while his last short, Redention, participates in festivals of independent cinema from the U.S. and Europe, The interviewer, his very first feature film, is now in pre-production.
Before photography, the cinema now. Choice or pure randomness?
"The passion for photography was born from the unexpected with a book of French photojournalist Henri Cartier-Bresson. After reading his concept of "zen" of photography, such as hunting the perfect moment, and I am in love poetry of his shots, I took my father's old Olympus and took my first photos. Since then I have not stopped. The shift to cinema, Instead, I believe it is the perfect sublimation of my love for photography. Cinema and photography speak a common language. Both have the power to transform the subjectivity of one person in an emotion so strong that it becomes concrete and shared objects. The photo does this through the use of images. The film also uses sound, music and movement, amplifying the result in an exceptional manner. "
What is missing in Italy for an experience like that you're living in California? "I think Italian cinema is missing the element that makes the American cinema alive and always evolving, which is the independent production. In Italy, most of the film is based on state funding. These products are in distribution agreements with several zeros on his feet even before the film itself was shot. In this way, the number of productions is inevitably low. In the United States, however, the view of the self-financed film is very interesting and are a lot of productions that are born, live and thrive outside of the system of Studios. There are producers who work only with independent films, whole distribution markets for independent films and movie theaters that screened only independent productions. This allows a young film-maker with no major capital appear in a film market still alive. It is from this basin that art cinema of the big American studios often draws ideas or talents. In Italy this does not exist.
these circumstances, it is difficult to imagine a return to Palermo ... your "I love Palermo with all its strengths and weaknesses and always carry a little 'with me, but for now I still need to discover the world. But there is a project I'm trying to do working with a producer friend and some members. This is a film about Palermo: an American production with cast and crew strictly Sicilian.
