A subtle balance between image, concept and vision, in the wake of elegance and Japanese calligraphy in the melting pot where coexist Latin letters, graphemes Chinese and Japanese. Parallel to the exhibition, opening the film Hiroshimae Angelus (2010), written and directed by Giancarlo Planta and produced by The ingenious Hidalgo with Franco Nero The film, inspired by the Book of Haikus by Jack Kerouac, with the soundtrack Ennio Morricone, Aquila was shot before the disastrous earthquake that has destroyed.
