Relegazione

Ci hanno caricati su lunghissimi treni. Migliaia di persone, combattenti e no. Poche valige, più che altro piene di cibo perché avvisati del lungo viaggio e dell’assenza di conforto. Si sente spesso piangere, ma soprattutto sono frequenti le invettive di chi non voleva la guerra ed oggi ne sconta come gli altri la perdita. Io, in divisa, vengo spesso insultato, ma il mio grado di semplice caporale, mi esenta da lunghe discussioni: ho eseguito gli ordini, questo dico e cambio aria. Va molto male per gli ufficiali, quelli sopravvissuti che oltre agli insulti, vengono aggrediti. Eppure, quando la guerra iniziò sembravano tutti convinti della sua necessità.
Giorni e giorni di treno con rare fermate, quando fanno scendere piccoli gruppi di persone, sprovviste di tutto, abbandonate in terre deserte.
Questa è crudeltà! Chi sopravviverà a tanto niente?
Tocca a me scendere assieme ad una ventina di persone: donne, bambini e solo quattro uomini.
Non andiamo subito d’accordo, chi ha un po’ di cibo non vuole dividerlo. Io mi allontano; faccio alcune centinaia di metri e mi accorgo che una giovane ragazza mi segue; l’ha mandata il padre; meno si è in famiglia e più cibo si divide. Non avrei mai pensato di mettere su famiglia; intanto però c’è da procurarsi il cibo e poi un tetto; guardo dalla cima di una collina e vedo un fiumiciattolo che scorre sinuoso. Il fiume e vita ed oltre all’acqua ci fornirà la carne delle bestie che fin da quassù vedo abbeverarsi; spero di esser più furbo di loro. Come selvaggi ma sopravviveremo.

Stefano Galli, born in 1950 in Falconara Marittima and nurtured amidst the dynamic milieu of Milan, seamlessly intertwines his artistic and scientific pursuits. Refusing to perceive a schism between the foundational principles of industrial and civil design and his lifelong commitment to art, Galli embarked on a journey where creativity and functionality coalesce.

Drawing inspiration from futurism, metaphysics, and surrealism, Galli's paintings bear the unmistakable imprint of these influential artistic movements, all while maintaining a distinct connection to the world of comics. His artistic vision transcends mere visual representation, delving into the realm of narrative composition. Themes, rich with inspiration, serve as the scaffolding upon which he constructs intricate narrative paths, often intertwining stories with images. Renowned art critic Prof. Philippe Daverio characterizes Galli's artistic expression as "meta-real," a playful manipulation of reality that distorts visual perception while affirming a concept of continuity between opposing forces—between the above and the below, the inside and the outside.

The evolution of Galli's painting unfolds as a nuanced exploration of interiors and exteriors in both space and time. His canvases feature perspectives dramatically altered to convey the absence of traditional spatial and temporal constraints, offering a singular tableau where deformation begets multiple viewpoints. In his hands, the canvas becomes a storytelling medium, akin to comic strips, allowing viewers to transcend time with a single glance. Galli emerges as a modern storyteller, utilizing the language of painting to present a dynamic fusion of narratives seen through the lens of art.

Galli's artistic triumphs have found homes in numerous collections across Italy and beyond. His works grace the walls of private collectors in Switzerland, France, Belgium, Germany, England, Spain, Russia, and the United Arab Emirates.
