Giorgione.... Canova..... Two names impressed in my heart..... I don't know why, but many times I need to see
the beatiful painting of Giorgione in the Castelfranco veneto's cathedral and also the beatiful sculptures of
the famous sculptor Antonio Canova in the in Possagno's gallery of plaster casts (treviso veneto Italy). I always
feel the same emotion like the first time. I love this venetian earth and these big italian artists. Their works
inspire my art and every day I hope to improve my works. I study their works (and the italian historical art) to
understand the shimmer of the colours so softness and harmonious. In their works I feel the love for the art,
like an immage in a poetry. I studed many Canova's scuptures but I'm not a neoclassic artist, I don't feel the
suggestion for the mitholigical heroes (not like the neoclassic artists). The suggestion that I feel is religious
and spiritual: the suggestion of the deep emotions of the soul. In my artistic ceramics and paintings I try
to express only one thing: love. I would want only this. Franco Zalunardo
