Manifesto

A meeting point between aesthetics, thought, and inspiration.

Culture About Art was born from the desire to look beyond the surface of art. Not merely images, forms, or styles, but the stories, visions, identities, and cultural transformations that transcend time.

We believe that art is both memory and presence.
A universal language that tells the story of the past, interprets the present, and challenges our understanding of the future.

 

Every work of art holds a context—social, historical, and profoundly human. For this reason, writing about art means exploring the places, ideas, and values that gave rise to it, creating meaningful connections between culture, society, and contemporary sensibilities.

Culture About Art aims to be a space for research, insight, and dialogue—a meeting point where aesthetics and critical thought, knowledge and inspiration come together.

Through words, images, and stories, we explore the world of art as a living, ever-evolving experience. Because art does not belong solely to the past: it lives in the present, engages with society, and helps shape its cultural identity.

This is our perspective.

This is our language.

This is our culture of art.

My name is Fulvio, my journey began at the State Institute of Applied Art in Monza, an extraordinary school where creativity and vision seemed to flow through the very corridors.

 

At university, I was convinced I wanted to change direction. Then came Max Horkheimer and Theodor W. Adorno’s Dialectic of Enlightenment, together with Walter Benjamin’s The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction. Ideas that sometimes converged and sometimes diverged, yet irresistibly brought me back to art, design, and the timeless fascination of the Bauhaus.

 

Photography was my first great love. I worked as a correspondent for a French photographic agency and had the opportunity to experience the studios of Aldo Ballo and Oliviero Toscani. Yet my imagination has always remained deeply connected to the poetic vision of Ugo Mulas.

 

Later, life took me elsewhere, but always within the world of ideas, culture, and aesthetics. I founded a radio station, a weekly newspaper, and two bookshops, one of which also hosted a small yet significant art gallery. Different projects, united by the same pursuit of beauty, language, and culture.

 

Today, I have been working for many years as an entrepreneur in the multimedia sector, and I am fortunate to continue living between communication, art, and creativity. I still follow that spark that first ignited so long ago and that continues, every day, to inspire my work and feed my curiosity.
