The choice of the name “Artgender” derives from the consideration for which the brand that identifies a particular company that operates in the sectors of event planning, publishing and communication has never been used; for us art is a real type of human being, that is, who is deeper. Does not exclude anyone but renames a category, composed of very different people within… elsewhere I think, origin and direction; but, united by a single factor: the artistic one. Anyone can be or feel like an artist as long as he is concerned with producing or simply approaching any form of expression. Our identity is necessary, in things, in people, in words, in ways… that teaching contributes to formation ‘individual evolution.

The Broadway Boogie-Woogie

Remember the famous video game #PacMan – very popular in the 80s and 90s – an animated #yellow sphere had the aim of ingesting all the dots in the labyrinth but avoiding contact with four ghosts 👻

Our parallel with this work by Piet #Mondrian “Broadway Boogie-Woogie” is not only because of #bright tones, hatches, colored areas and that yellow but, deeper, because both at first #reading appear simple and trivial while instead, they hide a certain complexity

☞ Do you know…

‣ The #name is just what #inspired the author: the Boogie-Woogie was a rather lively dance, the #rhythm is here represented by the sequence of squares without interludes of black lines, without an outline, therefore consequential. While #Broadway is a city that expresses as much vitality through its music and its road networks, on which yellow taxis #speed
‣ This series of #works mark Mondrian’s definitive transition to #abstractionism and are characterized by greater liveliness than the previous more “representative” and austere #art
