N.B. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE VIDEO OF THE WORK, THIS PORTRAIT IS MADE WITH THE "ALCHEMICAL TEMPORAMA" TECHNIQUE WHICH ALLOWS, THROUGH A CHEMICAL REACTION OF THE PIGMENTS, TO TRANSFORM THE IMAGE PAINTED ON CANVAS CYCLICLY IN FRONT OF THE SPECTATOR'S EYES, WITHOUT USE OF DIGITAL MEANS.

Maradona's story represents a concrete example of how a city ​​can literally arrive at divinizing a human being, and the parable of how events unfolded also provides us with a rather indicative picture of the consequences that this brings. To Naples Maradona was erected God, but the weight of omnipotence has burdened human nature too much and crushed it in a vortex of narcotics. This escape from reality places, in a merciless contrast, man faced with his finiteness. Here is the man, therefore, crowned like God and then scourged by life, only to return to being nothing else that a man, or using an expression dear to the Neapolitans, a "poor
Christ".

___________________________________________________________________________

N.B. COME SI PUO' VEDERE DAL VIDEO DELL'OPERA, QUESTO RITRATTO E' REALIZZATO CON LA TECNICA DEL "TEMPORAMA ALCHEMICO" CHE PERMETTE ATTRAVERSO UNA REAZIONE CHIMICA DEI PIGMENTI, DI FAR TRASFORMARE L'IMMAGINE DIPINTA SU TELA CICLICAMENTE DAVANTI AGLI OCCHI DELLO SPETTATORE, SENZA UTILIZZO DI MEZZI DIGITALI.

La storia di Maradona rappresenta un esempio concreto di come una
città possa letteralmente arrivare a divinizzare un essere umano, e la
parabola di come si sono svolti gli avvenimenti ci fornisce anche un
quadro piuttosto indicativo delle conseguenze che ciò porta in sé. A
Napoli Maradona è stato eretto Dio, ma il peso dell’onnipotenza ha
gravato troppo sulla natura umana e lo ha schiacciato in un vortice di
stupefacenti. Questa fuga dalla realtà pone, in un impietoso contrasto,
l’uomo dinnanzi alla sua finitezza. Ecco l’uomo, dunque, incoronato
come Dio e poi flagellato dalla vita, per poi tornare a essere nient’altro
che un uomo, o usando un’espressione cara ai napoletani, un "povero
Cristo".

N.B.: LE TEMPISTICHE DI SPEDIZIONE POTREBBERO RICHIEDERE A CAUSA DELLA PARTICOLARE NATURA TECNICA DI QUESTI DIPINTI, TEMPI DI CONSEGNA DA 14 A 30 GIORNI.

Biography
Francesco Filippelli is a Painter and Chemist born in Naples in 1993, of Calabrian origins. From an early age he demonstrated an expressive preference that converged towards the visual arts, which would find its full outlet when at 14 he studied in the workshop of the painter Francesca Strino. At 18 he realized the illusory evanescence of perceived reality, and driven by the desire to free himself from this nihilistic anguish he undertook studies on the material universe, enrolling in the faculty of Chemistry at the Federico II University of Naples. Since 2010 he has participated in various collective exhibitions throughout Italy. In 2018 he held his first solo exhibition at Palazzo Venezia, in Naples.
In 2020 he exhibited at PAN (Palazzo delle Arti in Naples) with a solo exhibition entitled 'I 7 Mari'. His works appear in various contemporary art magazines and in some art catalogs edited by Prof.V.Sgarbi.
Also in 2020, visiting the Sansevero Chapel, observing the portrait of Prince Raimondo di Sangro, he grasps the alchemical secret for the transformation of the paintings, on which he will work for the following three years in order to perfect the technique of the 'Alchemic Temporama' and create the first six portraits in transformation.
Francesco currently combines the profession of Painter with that of teacher of Mathematics and Science, at the IC Darmon institute in Marano (NA). Beyond his obsession with painting, he is passionate about quantum physics, maritime art and tobacco.
