Opis

- Black and White Plate Edition -
"Carmelo Arnoldin documents his labour of decades to create his vision of a universal home for all-"Mille"-a monumental work of architecture, sculpture and installation art."
Mario Gentilin's story begins at the peak of the Second World War, in the northern Italian village of Revo, where his family has lived for five centuries.
Surrounded by family and tied to the land, the music, the art and his faith in the truth of Catholicism, Mario-enthralled by the works of Michelangelo, Cano and Bernini-dreams of one day earning the right to be called an artist.
With the promise of arts training, Mario enters a seminary and spends four lonely years there, filled with disillusionment, until he decides to immigrate to Canada with his family.
In Revo, Mario was embedded in the past and in the present. In Canada, he is a lost soul. He is anonymous, with no identity. Living in a strange land, among people who often see him as strange, Mario is forced to redefine his idea of "home.""
