L’enigma della Bellezza

«Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion’s paws,
And make the earth devour her own sweet brood;Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger’s jaws,And burn the long-lived phoenix in her blood;»
(W. Shakespeare, Sonnet no. 19)

Sulla bellezza da sempre aleggiano le nubi del destino e del tempo divoratore. La bellezza è cantata, raffigurata e descritta fin dall’antichità come l’attimo fuggente della felicità e della pienezza della vita inesauribile, fin dall’inizio destinata ad un epilogo tragico e salvifico.
In questa interpretazione di Rino Stefano Tagliafierro la bellezza è riportata alla forza espressiva di un gesto che egli scaturisce dall’immobilità del quadro, animando un sentimento sottraendolo alla fissità museale. Come se in quelle immagini che la storia dell’arte ci ha consegnato fosse congelato un movimento che l’oggi può rivitalizzare grazie al fuoco dell’inventiva digitale.
Una serie ben congegnata di immagini della più bella tradizione pittorica (dal rinascimento al simbolismo di fine ottocento, passando per il manierismo, il paesaggismo, il romanticismo e il neoclassicismo) sono accostate secondo un’intenzione che rintraccia il sentimento sotto il velo delle apparenze. Un’ispirazione che ci restituisce il senso di una caducità e della brevità esistenziale che l’autore interpreta con la dignità tragica di uno sguardo disincantato, capace di cogliere il senso profondo di un’immagine. 
La bellezza in questa interpretazione è la compagna silenziosa della vita che inesorabilmente procede dal sorriso del bambino, attraverso l’estasi erotica, verso la smorfia di dolore che chiude un ciclo destinato a ripetersi all’infinito.
Significativi, da questo punto di vista, sono l’incipit di un’alba romantica nel cui cielo volano grossi uccelli neri e il finale del tramonto romantico con rovine gotiche che compie l’opera del tempo che fugge.

The Enigma of Beauty

«Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion’s paws,
And make the earth devour her own sweet brood;
Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger’s jaws,
And burn the long-lived phoenix in her blood;»
(W. Shakespeare, Sonnet no. 19)

Over Beauty, there has always hung the cloud of destiny and all-devouring time.
Beauty has been invoked, re-figured and described since antiquity as a fleeting moment of happiness and the inexhaustible fullness of life, doomed from the start to a redemptive yet tragic end.
In this interpretation by Rino Stefano Tagliafierro, this beauty is brought back to the expressive force of gestures that he springs from the immobility of canvas, animating a sentiment lost to the fixedness masterpieces.
Its as though these images which the history of art has consigned to us as frozen movement can today come back to life thanks to the fire of digital invention.
A series of well selected images from the tradition of pictorial beauty are appropriated, (from the renaissance to the symbolism of the late 1800s, through Mannerism, Pastoralism, Romanticism and Neo-classicism) with the intention of retracing the sentiment beneath the veil of appearance.
An inspiration that returns to us the sense of one fallen, and the existential brevity that the author interprets as tragic dignity, with an unenchanted eye able to capture the profoundest sense of the image.
Beauty in this interpretation is the silent companion of Life , inexorably leading from the smile of the baby, through erotic ecstasies to the grimaces of pain that close a cycle destined to repeat ad infinitum.
They are, from the inception of a romantic sunrise in which big black birds fly to the final sunset beyond gothic ruins that complete the piece, a work of fleeting time.

The term Peep Show 

comes from Peeping Tom, the sneaky Coventry tailor who, disobeying the proclamation of the count, made a hole in the shutters to see Lady Godiva riding naked through the streets of the city; he was so impressed that he was struck blind.


The Peep Show, also known as a peep show box or raree (rarity show), can be traced back as early as the 15th century in Europe with Leon Battista Alberti. Another example, known as the perspective box, can be found in the 17th century so-called "Dutch Golden Age painting" where, through the manipulation of perspective, was created an illusion of three-dimensionality usually within a room.

But the most well-known form of Peep Show, born from the need to satisfy their tastes with the sense of sight, was mobile. The spectator, through one or more spyholes, could look into a wooden box, inside which followed each of the images that were driven by the travellers. 

A Pekingese Peep Show
The interior of the boxes, to simulate the theatrical scenes, was richly decorated. While the images passed before the viewer's eyes, some actors recited to the rest of the curious public what was happening in the mysterious box.

The Chinese Peep Show, which caught on in the 19th century, was known as yang P'ien ("pulling foreign picture cards"). In respect to the classic Peep Show, it foresaw that the general public was entertained with puppet shows or images of the strange, the exotic and the out-of-the-ordinary.

In Ottoman Syria there existed a form of Peep Show called Sanduk al-ajayib ( "wonder box") that the walking was carrying on his back. In this case, on the box were six holes through which viewers could observe backlit scenes illuminated by a central candle.
These boxes generally showed contemporary stories or scenes of paradise and the invalid.

Other common subjects of Peep Show worldwide, presented animals, far-off landscapes, classical theater scenes, masks, ceremonies or court festivals, figures in transformation such as from anges to devils, and-of course- pictures of indecent scenes.

In 1894 the first machines that reproduced slides of naked women's movement were built. A few years later, during the early years of '900, even Thomas Alva Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made some movies depicting erotic situations in common contexts.

Subsequently, starting from this idea, in 1972 in New York the first live Peep Shows opened. Unlike the classic striptease, the viewer could see women in dishabille through windows. Though less common, the Peep Show still came to be used inside certain establishments. The female performer, placed in the center of a circular stage around which were arranged the private cabins, strips and often has sexual relations with another artist. The viewer enters the money in the machine and the window is opened for a predetermined time. The time of a dream.

ART PAINTINGS BY ARTIST




PEEP SHOW is a private journey into the world of eroticism.

The viewer, as if spying through the keyhole, witnesses a personal show in which art is the object of desire. The most beautiful erotic icons of the classical period wink and show themselves off in an atmosphere charged with sexual tension; triumphing, through their eternal power, in the transformation of that voyeurism into sublime act.
