My impressions are really positive. I was pleasantly surprised by the hospitality offered me. The Fondazione is wonderful, and I was provided with everything I needed during the three weeks I stayed there.
Special thanks to the cooks : )
The number of people who took part in the workshops seemed evenly balanced, and Jorge was his usual generous self, providing everyone with a lot of existential as well as artistic input. Personally, I feel that something changed in my way of thinking about art and my work. Spending three weeks together with the other guys was an experience that above all made me question human and artistic qualities, and I believe this is very important in order to improve. If the aim of those workshops was to make us question our certainties, well, it certainly worked. I’d say that, on the whole, I am very pleased to have had been given this chance.
