AVATAR
This trip starts from my land, San Marino, through my works that want at the first glance to remind us our origins, our ways purposing us a future almost uncertain. This my new exhibition tries to reach directly the people in their homes, trying to touch more States as possible in eighty days. This project wants to remind us those wonderful memories that have made our days happy. Memories bond to those places where we have played in a care free way, kissed for the first time, lived a positive and unforgettable experience. It is not necessary that this places are famous, but it is essential that they are important for us: with our friends laughting and jokeing, with our parents during a hike or an holiday.Placet that even after several years, are always pictured in our mind, an indelible picture full of emotions. It will be our “alter-ego”, better our “Avatar”, to transport these imagines and emotions to every one or to those that will have the want to answer my works with proper imagines, proper emotions and thoughts, like me through this virtual exhibition. A dream, even if thanks to a virtual man that since several months takes me in a virtual play and that gave me this idea, the one to reach you, as in this moment, not for a play but as a message: to fly with your minds with yourelf and in yourself , living your emotions and the mine. A project certainly difficult, but unique. To reach directly several persons and people of several States reach me, through the web that can keep us together in a room. The exhibition on line will be visible on the web site http://www.aika.it the pictures of the exhibition on facebook Aika Antonio Molinari. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2009 THE REPUBLIC OF SAN MARINO TAKES PART TO THE 53RD EDITION OF THE “BIENNALE” IN VENICE
This work represents the frahilty of man on nature; a man that needs to reset his condition on earth if he doesn’t want to loose his hope of life. Man without roots follows down; he preserves in him self only the remind of the luxuriant nature that was all around him …. Maybe if we could re-birth with a new, real consciousness of the place that we have received to live in, we’ll be able to avoid the absurd compromise that we find in front of us: we or nothing!
I am a broken leaf….I was green beautiful and luxuriant, I believed in life, I thought that the sap would have arrived forever, the a gust of wind….I trust its words and it brought me away. I now live, but away from my roots, away from my loved ones that were nearby!!! I wanted to believe in the dream!!! It was not true.
The work asks to the observer to enter it, Anyone who reads is the broken leaf: everybody, at least once in life, has been separated from his own situations. At that time his world has been brought away from him! In this frame of languages: Atlantic by me invented, commercial language by me imagined and in alien language, I shouted to everybody the chance to believe in this simple, but necessary message to everydody: RESET. 2008 CONTEMPORARY ART, PISTOIA (TOSCANY - ITALY) DECONSECRATED CHURCH ST.

2007 “INAPPESI” (UN-HANGED UP) DECONSECRATED CHURCH ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST PISTOIA (TOSCANY – ITALY) COLLECTIVE
As I enter in this church, opened to every faith, I see several pictures lent to the walls; no other title could be just right like this: un-hanged up!! I find a particular calm, due to satisfaction, of my interlocutor Piero. He is a man of a great vitality; his works are a continuum of himself ; he is a person of a unique patience, of great reliance. Calm he walks on the stone floor let me know that this is “his world”. Under the dome, rebuilt after the bombing of the church, he introduces me Irina. Irina too will take part to the collective; with her I spent wonderful hours, to listen her stories. I am carried away by her “visions” and thanks to them I am near this inebriating, positive, generous woman. The hours pass slowly and the pictures are taken away from the corners and each of tem find their exact place in the church. A hammer stroke …. No, just a little higher …. Better this way …… wait a moment, raise up an inch ….. yes, perfect! That is its place ! …. The exhibition is alive as in a dance …. In front of the crucifix, the only symbol that says us we are in a church, I meet Antonella. The blue of her eyes leaves me much hope …. She gave me the certain that I will be able to be a good father …. She is for me as a “fluid”, in a bit she warms me up in this frozen day away from heating. The table moved from the door, like an alert, says us that other people are coming in. A sunbeam arrives: Rose Mary, together with her beloved, solar like her coming from land. After few minutes I invite her to drink a coffee in the bar in front of us …. Only fifteen seconds and we are again at the exhibition. It’s a quarter to five ….. Like an alive woks, I lie down on the unique place again free. I try to keep my eyes closed, not for a prayer but to sleep and the discretion and the silence of Joseph are fundamental in this moment. I can sleep only for fifteen minutes. My telephone rings and between a laughter and a witticism I say few words in reply. Now the time flies, I control that all is all right. The open of the exhibition has been made since few minutes and it happens the only bad thing of the day: I haven’t sad good-bye to Irina while I went hurriedly away to avoid the snow along the way for home. The written words are useful to our memory to not forget moments of a wonderful day. Aika.
