"Fine-Arts" prints on paper
It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

L’opera è ispirata all’immagine dell’uomo, che saluta in segno di pace, posto sulla targa posizionata sulle sonde spaziali statunitensi Pioneer 10 e 11 (1972, 1973), le quali sono state spedite per la prima volta fuori dal sistema solare con l’intento non solo di esplorare l’universo, ma anche di comunicare l’esistenza dell’umanità a civiltà extraterrestri.
Per ben 335 milioni di anni le ammoniti, una specie di molluschi cefalopodi caratterizzata dal guscio a spirale, hanno colonizzato la Terra, poi, circa 66 milioni di anni fa, quando ci fu una delle più grandi estinzioni di massa della storia (famosa soprattutto per la sparizione dei dinosauri), sono letteralmente scomparsi senza lasciare discendenti viventi. Erano creature diffusissime ovunque, pertanto in qualsiasi zona del pianeta è possibile trovare i loro resti fossili. L’Homo Sapiens ovvero gli esseri umani “moderni” sono comparsi sulla Terra solo 300.000 anni fa, e, così come le ammoniti, si sono diffusi in modo rapido e pervasivo per tutto il globo. Negli ultimi decenni l’impatto della specie umana sull’ecosistema terrestre è stato così forte e invasivo, che gli scienziati parlano addirittura di una nuova era geologica, denominata Antropocene, caratterizzata dalle modifiche ambientali prodotte dall’uomo.
Chissà se l’uomo, che si autodefinisce “sapiente” e si presenta alle civiltà extraterrestri col saluto di pace, sarà in grado di fare meglio delle semplici ammoniti, ai posteri o agli alieni l’ardua sentenza.
