Reflections on Art and Freedom


In all countries and cities where we organize selections we find a local lobby This lobby with galleries, artists, curators, journalists, politicians pretendS to have the power of life and death of local artists. They do not consider them as people but numbers for their personal business. Entire communities are prisoners of these lobbies. Needless to say, the daughter of this system is the corruption and physical and intellectual prostitution. My mission is to fight the lobbies. Large and small and his servants. They can do anything against me but I will not give an inch. Why? Because when the artists know me they discover another world, they back to love art and understand that the lobby is strong as long as they let it. In life you have to conquer the things. The artists, the real ones, they do not need galleries, fairs, auction houses. They need collectors. Nothing else. True collectors buy directly from the artists, because they do not want to give more than 100% of real price to people who sell works as they sell tomatoes or Armani underpants Think about Your weakness is the strength of the lobby. We are in 2015. We do not need obsolete, corrupt and often criminals structures. We born free and we want to be free. Pietro Franesi
