The City of Turin and the public libraries in Turin present the solo show of Antonello Morsillo: Undressed by meat. The title of this exhibition homages philosophers, writers, scientists, activists, free thinkers in their bodies dismembered by four men who wanted to obliterate the traces! It's as if their bodies were undressed of those dresses that they have connotations because the emblem of a threat; without the robes of indifference and conspiracy of silence become like garments worn to be divested.
Over the centuries there has been a veritable massacres by Hypatia literally torn to pieces from side to side by a mob of Christians, represented here as a pregnant mother of science, Pier Paolo Pasolini , massacred by a "boy of life" in competition with unknown prospectively painted with open arms to simulate a flight from his "crucifixion".
From Giordano Bruno, who is in the canvas without the mouth, but with creeks that seem to give him the word, to Sophie Scholl depicted with a white rose in his mouth bristling with barbed wire!

His works, because they express suridealiste defined in fervor social scenarios dream , born of freehand drawing and are painted on canvas with pigments and acrylics. The particular slots , inspired by the "spots" of Rorschach , small patches that stand out from the represented and the " drill " deep, sealed the artistic identity . Its urgency is to paint concepts with social connotations because it believes that you never stop learning from those who stood out for human depth ! After the four-year experience with the SonyBmg , there are many works that appeared on the covers of CDs, books and magazines on characters like Mina, Milva , Patty Pravo , Rector, Luigi Tenco, Daria Nicolodi Scialpi and Renato Zero.
