Saturday, July 10 at 21.00 inaugurates an exhibition of ceramics by Roberto Giannotti entitled "Design & Mediterranean PaGuru the philosophy of "the headquarters of the Committee for Artistic Rigor Garitta Pozzo 11, Albissola Marina.

The event relies on the patronage of the Albissola Navy, Department of Culture.

Title assembles touches on two main themes: first, that of design and albisolese Savona, was carried on for years both in terms of innovation of forms and decorations, interpretation is in renewal of old containers such as albisolese pots.

In this exhibition, however, have added a series of unique, recent, made in both modeled that to slip, sculptures and ceramic plates produced in three historic sites and vibrant ceramic albisolese: The House Factory Museum Mazzotti G. 1903, Ceramiche San Giorgio, both Albissola Marina, and the ceramic laboratory of Mark Tortarolo to Albisola.

Attention focused on a combination of technical, expressive ceramic and irony, taking into account also the author's long career as a cartoonist.

E 'thus arose the series of PaGuru. The cute animals are typical of marine waters near the beaches and albisolese Savona, were used as a benchmark for their sympathy and simplicity, to laugh at those who take themselves too seriously and, especially in the art world, pontificates about anything with words difficult and complex. So even hermit crabs can be a bit .. 'Guru and they also have their own philosophy of life. In these PaGuru ligusticità there is a lot, and so albisolese ceramic tradition, with a thought directed to Elisha Salino all (have in common both the shares of the famous Salon of Humour Bordighera, which has since earned in subsequent years Giannotti Award for Humor Elisha Salt, Perfect Caesar delivered by the owner), but also Umberto Ghersi in whose laboratory has taken the first steps, without forgetting the Savona Gigi Caldanzano. The show has become in recent weeks the excuse to experience the fascinating reality of the factories, working on technique dell'ingobbio, immediate and closer to his needs "graphic-humor" for the speed sign, the Casa Museo G. Mazzotti Factory 1903 , assisted by Tullio Mazzotti and artistic director Claudio Manfredi, in the midst of old prints and modern art, Claudio Mandaglio while pulling up his splendid vases on a lathe, in the ceramics St. George, surrounded by Piero and Giovanni Poggi, under the careful advice of Silvana Priametto and Matthew Poggi, who continually impressive form large plates, in a coming and going of artists and attendance; by Marco Tortarolo, another very good potter, heir to the great tradition albisolese in his studio near the Villa Gavotti where they operate and studying other artists from all over Italy. They are all places that show how Albisola today is more alive than ever, where the arrival of artists in factories and laboratories is ongoing, where history is combined to the future, the traditional hospitality, friendship and professionalism piacere di stare insieme. Visto il messaggio anche il “catalogo” è rivolto al mare..difatti la brochure è inserita dentro una bottiglia di vetro, e qualche “catalogo” forse verrà lasciato andare con le correnti del litorale albisolese..l'inaugurazione è prevista per sabato 10 luglio alle ore 21,00 arricchita dalla presenza di Negma e le Stelle d'Oriente, prestigiosa scuola di danza del ventre diretta dalla bravissima Francesca Orlando, recente vincitrice di importanti riconoscimenti a livello nazionale.
