Sciopero
Mi chiamano il Propositore, il motivo di questo soprannome ve lo dirò dopo alcune premesse: il
continuo uso di strumenti informatici, ci portò alla cancellazione della memoria scritta, essendo
ormai tutto contenuto in enormi memorie il cui accesso inizialmente facilitato, diventava sempre
più legato alle caratteristiche della persona: sesso, età, professione e altro. Le informazioni
richieste erano spesso negate ma nessuno se ne lamentava essendo ormai tutti abituati ad
sistema di vita senza problemi e senza necessità; tutto veniva soddisfatto dalla I.A.. vita senza
problemi di denaro; di sicurezza; di lavoro. Fu proprio dal problema lavoro che nacque tutto: quasi
l’intera popolazione non si sentiva realizzata; non riusciva a placare quel gesto atavico di portare a
casa il frutto della caccia. Non potevano certo soddisfare quell’esigenza con le simboliche tre ore
annuali di lavoro. Sì, tanto era lo sforzo lavorativo richiesto dal sistema in cambio del tuo perpetuo
mantenimento in ozio. Da questo punto di vista l’I.A. aveva mantenuto la promessa: il sistema
cancellerà la schiavitù del lavoro e lo ha fatto!
Da dove prese avvio la manifestazione collettiva del disagio non si sa, ma avvenne.
Ci trovammo per strada con cartelli ed urla: volevamo più lavoro. Le sonde, cioè i robot, si presero
qualche inutile sassata; loro dovevano solo trasmettere i motivi dello “sciopero” come veniva
erroneamente chiamato, ma nessuno aveva ben chiaro cosa volesse. Presi l’iniziativa comunicando
ai robot che chiedevamo tre ore al mese di lavoro; dodici volte le ore attuali. Da allora mi
chiamano il Propositore, parlando di me come di un antico eroe.
Nessuno sa che il giorno dopo mi hanno deportato verso oriente, in una landa sperduta dove non
posso cacciare; mi danno tutto loro: i robot di guardia.
Mi abbruttisco ogni giorno di più

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.
