Libri d'autore in edizioni limitate: a2mani Books

The a2mani project is born around the concept of Artist's Book, a workshop that explores new forms of artistic production between the world of contemporary art in all its forms and the book object, in a collaborative relationship between artists of different disciplines : visual artists, poets, musicians, writers, videomakers, photographers.

 

-Two hands are better than one: a familiar adage that evokes concepts such as collaboration, harmony, synergy and sharing.

he choice of name for this collection was therefore natural, conceived from the collaboration between myself and other artists with whom I have had the opportunity to share projects and produce works with both hands.

Where artistic work is considered an expression of the spirit, it is by definition an individual and solitary process. Nevertheless, I believe that the search for a dialogue between the various artistic languages is a road that can lead to new forms of expression.

Poetry, visual art, music, through collaboration between artists, interact with each other in a novel and creative way.-
