In the Maghreb countries "nana" is the mint tea, but in the French family stands for women, girls and oral communication is widely used. I find it very beautiful word: the words will be faster, it will be the musicality of the repeated syllable with the accent on the last vowel, but is happy and funny just like Nanas of Niki de Saint Phalle , French-American artist , eclectic and cosmopolitan city, which has been called everything and its opposite. . Al Mamac , the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nice , Niki, just before dying, he offered 170 works including paintings, sculptures, lithographs, prints, other documents and of course his "girls", these women of the female giant, the subject of choice of the artist, sprung up like magic from its a dream world.
I spoke of magic and the dream world, positive values \u200b\u200bthat do not correspond to reality Instead of dramatic interior inhabited by horrible ghosts "I wrote this book primarily for myself, trying to finally rid myself of this drama that played a role in determining if my life. I am a survivor of death, I needed let the little girl in me talking at last. My text is the desperate cry of the girl " . A survivor of the death, una sopravvissuta went dead if definisce Niki de Saint Phalle nel suo libro scritto a mano e autobiografico "My Secret" del '94. It terribile suo segreto è del incesto padre di 11 anni all'età. The orribile violenza dei segni lascia, segni di ciò che non è più, ma la absence of which is carved into existence. Already speaking, writing is an act of transgression, because violence is secret-appoint an unclean thing is giving it new life, his rise from the deepest recesses as you would like to bury it, forget it. Niki de Sain Phalle say the unspeakable, its index, through art, a vital tool to exorcise morte.Dapprima the psychiatric hospital in Nice, tranquilizers and barbiturates, in her handbag always on hand a pair of scissors, a knife, her Nanas are pale at the beginning, made of cloth and rags, to look good up close are a pile of shards of broken dolls, sewn or glued limbs disjointed here and there, tubes Painting, combs, a tragic and broken world, the contrast between appearance and certain attributes, breasts sometimes seem of machine guns. Then the life instinct takes over and the Nanas offer all their exuberant femininity, become sumptuous Venus bright, bright colors, a revolution of that playful little girl who wants to dream again.
I would love to go to Tuscany, Garavicchio, a fraction of Capalbio: is the Tarot Garden by Niki de Saint Phalle , created on land provided by the family of the artist Caracciolo. Would find his creations inspired by the shapes of the Major Arcana of the Tarot, monumental works and sometimes living space, a mixture of sculpture, painting and architecture, who knows maybe refuge and strength in a world "other."
