Francesco Fiscardi e la sua veduta di Milwaukee dallo spazio

The map of Milwaukee by Francesco Fiscardi

Time: 2 mins read

How could anyone forget the evocative Vedute Satellitari [Satellite Views] by Francesco Fiscardi? The artist, born in Naples in 1974, is sensitive and diligent, passionate about trips around the world and  the journeys he is constantly taking in his endlessly imaginative mind. We introduced him in the November 15th issue of La Voce di New York, on the occasion of the presentation of his picture that reproduced a faithful, intriguing view of New York.

And just five months later, Fiscardi has been invited by the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, to present his work depicting the city of Milwaukee. This will be an intercultural event to be held, via Zoom, on April 29, where the artist will tell the students of an Italian course all about the innovative pictorial technique that he uses in his satellite views of international metropolitan areas.

The artist Francesco Fiscardi

Passionate about culture and far-off places, he has always been fascinated by Native Americans; he has read avidly about their history and goings-on since he was a child, and his passion was fueled further by exciting movies and legends set in their territories. It was inevitable, then that Milwaukee would feature in his series of Satellite Views. The work is rich in details and allusions to these territories, the origins of the tribes that have lived along the shores of Lake Michigan, the colors that still characterize the lakeside today, the green of the trees, the stunning azure of the water that laps onto the shore, the white beaches, the so-called Singing Sands.

New York City seen from space by Francesco Fiscardi

Fiscardi says, “I have a burning desire to connect and intermingle national cultures, and I seek to do this with my canvases and my colors, inserting a dose of magic realism, an act of love aimed at helping one’s neighbor. I imagine, and sense at the same time, that Naples, like Milwaukee, is a city of great solidarity, made up of big and small stories, of people who live not just for themselves, but also for others. For me, it’s an important opportunity, an acknowledgement of the work and value of interculturality, of openness among peoples, combined with the respect that all men and women deserve. And for this I will never be able to thank Professors Robin Pickering-Iazzi and Margaret Noodin enough for providing me with this amazing opportunity”.

We remind you that Fiscardi’s works are much appreciated and on display in many countries worldwide. Some are to be found in the Istituto Italiano di Cultura of Los Angeles; others in the Calandra Italian American Institute of New York City, NY; the City Hall of New York City, NY; the Istituto Italiano di Cultura of Sydney, Australia; The Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilizations, Marseilles; the Tunisian Consulate, Naples; Capri Town Hall (NA), il Centro Internazionale di Etnostoria, Palermo and the Società Dante Alighieri, Rome.

Manuela Antonucci

Manuela Antonucci nasce a Taranto, in Puglia. Si forma al liceo scientifico e si laurea in economia e commercio. Da allora, e tutt’oggi, si occupa di Qualità in un’importante azienda del territorio toscano. Appassionata d’arte sin da bambina, non smette mai di “osservare” l’arte; sentirla, toccarla, annusarla. Ritiene che per apprezzarla, sia fondamentale affidarsi a dinamiche introspettive, diverse da quelle razionali. E’ autrice della monografia d'arte "Oltre la tela", WF Edizioni (2016) e della biografia "Lupo di Strada”, sulla vita dell'ex-vice questore di Lucca, Pacini Fazzi Editore (2020). Organizza eventi. E’ curatrice. Collabora con la “Libera Accademia delle Belle Arti” di Firenze (LABA). E’ membro del Comitato scientifico della “Fondazione Boccardini” di Perugia. Manuela Antonucci was born in Taranto, Puglia. She has been responsible for quality in a major Tuscan company. Passionate about art since she was a child, she is fascinated by stories linked to the lives of painters.She never ceases to “observe” art; to feel it, touch it, smell it. She thinks it is essential to be “shot through by art” and to do this it is necessary to “stop thinking”, trusting in introspective dynamics that are different from rational ones. She is the author of the art monograph “Oltre la tela” [Beyond the Canvas], published by WF Edizioni (2016). She collaborates with the “Libera Accademia delle Belle Arti” of Florence (LABA) and is member of the steering committee of the “Fondazione Boccardini” of Perugia.
