21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Yes, but what do you do?
Yes, but what do you do? The work and the figure of the artist is little or nothing recognized in a country like Italy which, by contradiction, is the cradle of art and culture. "Yes, but what do you do?" it exposes the difficulty of artists to find a place in the world, a recognized position. At the basis of this work there is a self-reflective investigation of the position of the artist and artistic work in society. Why is the artist's doing and the artist himself not recognized as a social being with socio-political importance? Yet the artist exists!
