"Il mio tratto è fanciullesco, non infantile. È molto difficile fingere...ottenere la qualità necessaria per proiettarti nel tratto del bambino. È una cosa che devi sentire dentro"
Cy Twombly Ogni sua opera è un dialogo interno con il puer, quel refolo di vitalità che non dovrebbe mai abbandonare l’uomo. L’arte di Twombly rappresenta il costante impegno nel lasciar libera quella dimensione che ci tocca per pochi anni, ma ci segna per una vita intera. Si può sostenere un dissidio interiore solo sentendo nella carne l’estrema esigenza. Nei suoi segni fanciulleschi riscopriamo tutti i moti dell’essere; affrontati con la consapevolezza di un adulto, ma l’espressione di un bambino. I vorticosi tratti sulla carta ci evocano l’atavico bisogno di estrinsecazione di un animo giovanile che è simbolo dello slancio verso il nuovo e l’ignoto.
“My style is boyish, not infantile. It is very difficult to fake it… to capture this quality and project yourself into the style of a child. It’s something you have to find inside yourself.”
Every one of his works is the product of a dialogue with the artist’s internal puer, which provides a breath of vitality that we must never renounce. Twombly’s production evidences his constant effort to free up that part of his mind which is formed and left behind in only a few years but which affects us for the rest of our lives. It is only possible to sustain this internal struggle if one feels in his bones the extreme need. In his boyish mark-making we find all the traces of the human existence, approached with the sagacity of an adult, but executed with the expressive means of a child. The signs that swirl across the paper evoke an atavistic need to reveal his childish spirit. It is a leap into the new and unknown.
