Roman sculpture and industrial archeology. An ancient sculpture in white marble inserted inside an ancient power station in Rome has fascinated the artist. In the background the control panel of the large central unit with the instruments and on the right a signal with the word “start”. The photo was taken with a digital camera and printed by the same artist in resin-pigmentype. (The resin-pigmentype is a procedure studied directly by Maurizio Paolo Grassi and derived from the ancient technique of resinotyping invented by Professor Rodolfo Namias in the early years of the twentieth century.)

The work is printed in 9 copies by hand on cotton paper sensitized and treated directly by the artist. For the particular type of printing process, each copy is different from the other.

(I resumed this note from my report on the project for the recovery of an ancient brick kiln I developed in the 80s of the twentieth century as a degree thesis.)

In this photographic “photo art collection” I wanted to relate the symbolic values ​​of industrial archeology with those of Roman sculptures. “
