This book reflects the lengthy artistic career of Duilio Pierri and the features of his work.  In Pierri’s paintings there is always an outrageous, boundless and chaotic element. An unbalanced tension and force that appear or struggle to appear in all his series, sometimes manifestly, at other times concealed, latent.

The audacity of his work is initially physical: it can be seen in the colors and shapes, the way paint is applied, the gestures and brushstrokes. Then come the relationships, the quotes, they way they are evoked, particularly in the case of the classics, but also the artists of the Renaissance and then the Moderns, Fauvism in particular.
