At night, a window darkens, and suddenly a face appears. Thus, we leaf through Manifesto: long sequences of black pages interrupted, in an unpredictable and almost random way, by faces painted by Enrico Tealdi. A bilingual art book and book-object (published by Progetto Parallelo), it is an invitation to slow down and wait: black is a darkness that does not hide but prepares the gaze. Tealdi, interviewed by Sonia Pellegrino, recounts the silence, the suspension, and the delicacy of this experience of slow attention, to learn to truly look at who appears before us.
