Robert Ferrandini


Gallery NAGA - "Robert Ferrandini is one of the most admired painters working in New England. For over twenty-five years he has been celebrates for his haunted and glorious landscapes, which incorporate imagers culled from art history, film, literature, and popular culture. ... Since a 2001 stroke that depived him of the use of his right hand, Ferrandini has painted with his left hand, primarily in watercolor, producing increasingly complex works, unpopulated invented landscapes and seascapes suffused with broad ranges of color, exuberant mark making, and a rapturous glorying in visual phenomena."

"To Survive in the Universe - 'I don't think the humen race will survive the next thousand years, unless we spread into space. There are too many accidents that can befall life on a single planet.' The SKY-MAP.ORG authors completely share these concerns of Stephen Hawking. The only words we could add are that the greatest threat to the human race is the human race itself."

Lost Cities

"As a kid, when I first came across the 'lost cities,' I was mesmerized. A whole city lost? Lost? I've seen many lost cities since then but have lost none of my fascination for them. I am in Lattakia to visit anothar - the nearby ruins of Ugarit, the 2nd millennium BCE city credited with the first and only invention of the alphabet." - The Lost City of Ugant

Stalls Project - "I believe that while theatres ars created with the purpose of theatrical representation they also embody different stages of history. It is not important whether the theatres are old or contemporary, whethre they are different shapes or styles; they are part of our history. They are alive and active and should be documented as historical monuments brought together in a global panorama."

"The pioneers of concrete poetry could only dream of the now-standard tools used to make language move and morph, stream and scream, distributed worldwide instantaneously at little cost. Essentially, a gift economy, poetry is the perfect space to practice utopian politics."

Trying to explain what Burning Man is to someone who has never been to the event is a bit like trying to explain what a particular color looks like to someone who is blind. In this section you will find the peripheral definitions of what the event is as a whole, but to truly understand this event, one must participate."
