1978 - Dimensions cm 50x70 The execution of this work was intended to emphasise the sacrifice of a man of our time, condemned to death after 55 days of forcible imprisonment which brought him indescribable suffering to his spirit, but above all to his mind. The other faces besides that of Aldo Moro, which can be picked out with careful observation, were not willfully created by the author, but materialised during the course of the work. That cross made from simple tree trunks just gathered, a cross which is not beautiful, nor smoothed or polished by expert hands; is still tree trunks with all their roughness, because that man was totally abandoned to his ineluctable destiny by those who could have helped him, a great mind miserably sacrificed. That cross so conceived has a higher significance, in as much as the branches still attached show his thoughts and his suffering, and that hunched-up body bears witness to get away from that painful situation. Without a shadow of a doubt, his last wish was a yearning for life. That body on the cross with its face turned towards that gash of light, as if to search for someone up there, who could hear his cry of pain, bears witness in time to a dark period in our history. Many speeches can be made from the elements characterize to you, if that face that surpasses Aldo Moro were Albert Einstein, could be asserted that, from the progress is been born the contexts, from the contexts are been born the tragedies. If he were Arturo Toscanini, that it has dedicated its life to music, Aldo Moro has dedicated its life to politics, the Christ, has dedicated its life in order to make to grow the Christian faith. If it were Giuseppe Verdi, with its Nabucco declaimed to the unit of Italy, Aldo Moro with its proposal of the historical pact tried the unit of the Italians, the Christ has been immolated for the unit of the Christian faith, but if we want to consider it, an other consideration still exists that, leaving from the cross symbol of the human tragedies and, stopping a moment to us to consider the progress of the days ours, where we can see as the cruelty man isucceeds to complete the more brutal crimes with the nature of the wild animal. Therefore from the tragedy of the cross, Moro passes itself on the face of Aldo towards that face multishapes in order to observe also the forehead of Leonardo, present, to indicate the great intelligence of the human being; part to arc on towards right like if one were on a Spaceship, in order to land on a cloud, where the delineated face of an android attends us very, nearly to remark the useless of the violence, - with the reference to ours first siblings Caino and Abele -, bringing back us to the evoidly, return to the origins.
