              Stone/L'irruzione del reale
              ES ES-OVNI RSC-3197 · Item · 2007
              Part of Non-Identified Video Observatory (OVNI)

              Video work "Stone/Irruption of Reality" is born from the encounter with women who are working ten and more hours per day as stone-breakers and rock-bearers over Buthan mountains' streets (North-East of India). Working women as ancient as the mountains from which they seem to break off; women whose faces convey a profound calmness, although their hands are slaughtered and their faces marked by strain. Video images are since the beginning strictly related with excited voices from New York's Stock Exchange, suggesting a deep connection between economic power and exploitation, between wealth and poverty in the world. This relation is underlined also by Master Alessandro Cipriani's sound concept, that processes stockbrokers' nervous voices into stones' noise, till it gets into a hammer's hard rhythm which beats time of these women's lives, hour after hour and day by day. Reality comes out in all its rawness and its grief.

              The post-war period and the New World Order told through documentaries, war films, propaganda and photographs. Waco, Oklahoma City, September 11, the war on terrorism and Special Laws, the "Other America" and the destruction of the 10 amendments. The Pentagon is born from the need to bring together counter-information and journalistic rigor, continuing the operation that began with the radio spots "Iraq 2 Special Edition", "death for sale" and "The Black Mirror of Democracy".

              In Italy, for thirty odd years, the realm of images has been controlled by one man. TV-magnate and Presidente Silvio Berlusconi has influenced the content of commercial television in Italy in an unprecedented way. His TV channels, featuring young skimpily-clad girls, are considered by many to mirror the tastes and personality of Il cavaliere.
