A living tree means a living planet

 

 "A living tree means a living planet" is a collective international documentary conceived and directed by Khalid Mokadmine, a young filmmaker from Rabat. In April he reached me out online inviting me to contribute with a one minute video to his ongoing project about the relationship between humans and trees.

He had already invited several filmmakers from all over the world, each one representing a different country by telling a different visual story, and he still wasn't able to find a director from Italy available to shoot his own segment. As soon as he discovered I'm also a painter, he proposed me to figure out a way to feature one of my painting in my video. Trees have provided humans with the primary means of survival, therefore I thought it was essential to show how they can still be a precious "motherly" source of life for my own creations and (hopefully) the spirit of the humans inhabiting my country.

AFANzine - Pre-Raphaelites

AFANzine - Art as told by AFAN Alessandro Fantini Pre-Raphaelites In 1848 three friends started the most revolutionary "reactionary" movement in the history of Art: the “Pre-Raphaelites Brotherhood”, inspired by the bright simplicity and linear purity of Medieval art and Italian painting before the mannerist style developed after Raphael.

 Between video-magazine and documentary, informative program and video-art, in this series conceived and produced for the web, the multimedianic artist AFAN Alessandro Fantini browses the art currents and the artists who have contributed to its aesthetic training over the years, affecting the development of his personal multi-faceted approach to creativity.

NEW YORK, A VENTURE
Colors are flaming memories
A random incident that makes Adam lose every natural and artificial connections to the surrounding world, will be nothing but the first stage of a self-discovery through the darkness of memory. Only the verses of Amy, the enigmatic poetess of Central Park, will eventually enlighten the path of his quest with the Flames of a Vision that once split two lives, and now is about to reunite them in the cleansing whiteness of a stocking cap.

Modify Watches interview

 Check out your watches as it's time to read the first interview of 2016 I've given to Modify Watches:

Defining himself as a "multimedianic artist", Alessandro Fantini is a self taught artist focusing on creating art through video, music, painting, photo, drawing and writing. Inspired by Leonardo da Vinci, his work never disappoints. Read on to find out more about Fantini's artistic journey.

Where do you find your inspiration?

The majority of my artworks could lead to think that I'm constantly transferring on paper and canvas my hallucinations and dreams, even though the latter represent only the 10% of my source of inspiration (and it mostly depends by the intensity of my night mental activity, that's a faculty I cannot control).
Actually I use to develop my visual ideas by following the unspeakable vibes perceived before a landscape (especially when I'm contemplating it from inside a car), listening to music, reading a book, or while walking alone in the countryside at the twilight musing about the events and the emotions I've experienced over the day. Somehow the final composition is the last stage of a long refining process triggered by a sudden perturbation of my sensorial dimension, something very close to the phenomenon of the "presque vu", “almost seen”, when we feel that we’re about to recall a name, a word or a particular, haunting feeling, without being able to tell it. The artworks are the nonverbal answers to those enigmatic perceptions.

Director Showreel 2015

     

It’s quite hard to tell if, at the beginning, my infatuation for painting was stronger than my fixation for filmmaking and writing, but it’s easy to say that over the last 20 years they grow tied together forming a sort of vineyard where the pictorial images are grapes from which the hands of the narrative skill extract the wine of audio-visual elation. I wish the viewers would be able to enjoy this juice as much as I enjoy growing the vine grapes in the soil of my inborn and atoxic drunkenness.
