Giotto’s ‘Inferno’ + Massera 1995 - 2007

Editor: León Ferrari’s ‘Giotto’s ‘Inferno’ + Massera’ is a chaotic and disturbing image. What I find most striking is the juxtaposition of Giotto's religious imagery with what seems like a military figure. What symbols do you see at play here? Curator: The layering of Giotto’s 'Inferno' with the figure in uniform creates a potent visual dialogue. 'Inferno,' traditionally a symbol of spiritual torment, here intersects with the very real horrors of political oppression. Do you think the figure represents power or corruption? Editor: It seems like a critique of power, of earthly and divine judgement becoming blurred. I hadn't considered the political implications so directly. Curator: The artist uses familiar imagery to unearth deeper cultural anxieties. It speaks to how symbols can be manipulated. Understanding this piece helps us decipher hidden narratives embedded in art.
