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.

Unique forms of continuity in space

A good start to the week with the sculpture that more than any other represents #movement and fluidity.

“Unique forms of continuity in space” is one of the masterpieces of Umberto Boccioni and of Futurism.

☞ Do you know…

‣ in the “futurist style” the intention was to represent the #advance of Modern Industry.
In fact, in this #masterpiece the subject is a man, deprived of the contours and the definition of the body, which moves forward simulating the stride of a step.
The ability to render the #idea of the act that the subject is doing is perfectly rendered thanks to a #game of fullness and emptiness, of light and shadow but also of pronounced muscles despite the missing limbs.

‣ the #original work is in plaster and none of the more well known #bronze copies was made until the author was alive. Currently there are seven versions in the world, all with the same priceless #artistic value.
