AMEDEO DEL GIUDICE

"My art is only a need that comes from within, a way of being, a way of life, an eternal conversation that the artist makes to confront himself. It is a form of pure selfishness whose object is the work. A picture can represent but cannot say, the picture is an end in itself".

ANDREA ESPOSITO

"Art is like a hot fire on a winter evening; when you get closer, you feel good, it helps you feel less alone and indeed in the company of the brilliant men who produced it and places created full of beauty and mystery. Through its hypnotic language, made of silence and motionless forms, it takes you to a non-time in which your point of view is expanded."

ARINA GORDIENKO

“If you want to be an artist, never expect that inspiration will come to you on a daily basis. Just go to your studio and get yourself ready for working hard, and then, in hours, inspiration can come along. But it is not guaranteed. Only hours of hard work and practice will help you to create something spectacular.”

AUGUSTO C. BORDELOIS 

 "Whether it is visual art, literature or music, if I don’t create, I go crazy. Anyone can learn the skills to create a beautiful piece of visual art, a good rhythmed poem or a catchy tune. We all have it in us. An artist needs to create to communicate; media, support, supply quality, place and time are irrelevant. That intention to communicate ideas and stories is what drives me to create."

EVA PIOTROWSKI-LEWARNE

"Art is not just about what appeals to the average Joe, it is far more than that, it is transcendent and speaks about things that the average Joe hasn't thought of before, so that he can raise himself a bit above his current level of humanity. Art is the voice of intuition in action."

GABRIEL SAINZ

"Each of us has a unique voice, a way of walking, breathing, postures and gestures that are our own. I try to paint in that way, not to do it as admired painters or as I did a few years ago because one is not the same person all his life. Also, becoming more conscious  of what interests me, in my loves, in my places and not in issues that seem to be a legacy, in a way that somehow guarantee us some approval from others, I try not to "do" thinking about pleasing but going deeper and without taking into account the time it takes for each painting, put in words it sounds very nice but that’s how it is, a subtle difference that does not mean that the paintings are better even if it makes them sincere."
