Art, in all its forms and shapes, is the most immediate and beautiful of all ways of communicating: a painting, a song, a piece of poetry, a palace or a church, they all tell a story. A story of emotions and feelings, filtered through colors, shapes and sounds. What an amazing world, that of the artist, gifted and blessed with the most universal of languages: creativity.
Artists communicate with the world through their art, but they also express their turmoil, their pain and their happiness. In a way, they allow us to glimpse into their more intimate self, something we should always feel grateful for, I believe. This is the starting point of our ideal walk through the rooms and corridors of the Italian American Museum of Los Angeles (IAMLA), where an exhibition dedicated to Italianità, Italian-ness, is about to begin.
