Causal Sets / 葬列, April 2023. Digital Media and Photo Collage, 33 x 50 cm.
Description:
This artwork, "Causal Sets," draws inspiration from Eastern mysticism and the theory of causal sets, serving as a conceptual bridge between quantum mechanics and the general theory of relativity. The piece explores the simultaneity of cause and effect, illustrating that events from past, present, and future unfold within an instant, challenging the continuity of time. The narrative portrays each being as isolated within its own cell, yet interconnected through inevitable bonds of fate that give rise to our collective existence. The work underscores a profound message: every individual is unique and essential, contributing irrevocably to the vast changes in the world. Through a metaphorical funeral procession through a sea of stars, it invites reflection on the ephemeral nature of existence and the importance of cherishing each moment and connection in our transient world.

This book aims to be the most important showcase to admire the great works that are intended to remain in history. The volume (21 x 28 cm) will be fully look after by two connoisseurs of contemporary art: Salvatore Russo and Francesco Saverio Russo.
The choice of the selected artists will be made thinking to the stylistic value of the artwork, together with the analysis of their artistic research. Contemporary art needs new Masters. New languages linked both to the tradition and the informal semiotic.
The contemporary art world offers us many points for reflection. We have always thought that observing the development of contemporary art is like going to the cinema and eagerly waiting for the end of the story. The ending always holds some beautiful surprises.
We believe the time has come to create a catalog that can truly highlight contemporary talents. Artists from around the world, authentic witnesses of our century. Painters, sculptors, photographers, digital artists, performers, and video artists who must absolutely be known and recognized by the large art audience.
Thus, the idea of creating a catalog “The Best Contemporary Masters” was born, which is divided into 5 categories: PAINTING/SCULPTURE/ PHOTOGRAPHY/DIGITAL ART/PERFORMANCE & VIDEO ART, to better tell the story of Contemporary Art.
We are looking for new avant-garde thinkers capable of leaving an indelible mark in the world of art. Contemporary art very often does not have the following of the public that Modern art does. For this reason, we want to include in this catalog, which will be in its first edition, all those Contemporary Artists who we think can trace the new path to follow.
A volume that includes figurative, abstract, informal, conceptual, sculptors, photographers and video artists. A volume that will become the veritable bible for every curator, dealer, gallerist owner and director of the museum world.
