Entitled “The Book of Water” Massana marks the beginning of a series that begins its exhibition journey at the Palazzo delle Arti Napoli. To continue at the Jesi Art Gallery (Italy) and other cities in Europe. “The fourth dimension, time, plays an important role where there are countless references to running water and therefore time: footprints of people who have passed or worn stones of running rivers. (…) D on the other hand, the narrative side of Massana’s work links him to the original Transvarguarda, a campaign that develops an imaginary between myth and fantasy, often referring to primary interests such as space, time and history. “Julia Draganovic, director of Palazzo of Arts Naples (Italy)

“(…) As a nerve ending, it relates human groups that were otherwise destined to be isolated, transports seeds and pollen, adds cohesion between populations otherwise hostile to each other. water carries languages, eating habits, sumptuous images, technology, forms of expression. – “Loretta Mozzoni, director of the Pinacoteca di Jesi (Italy).
