Der Italienische manierismus
Limited to 300 copies. 'A certain line of thinking and feeling that runs from the hermetic and mannerist times from the dusk of the renaissance through the unfolding of the baroque has been very influential for me in the past few years and seems to resurface in this collection of pieces. Conceptual frameworks here are often wrapped in luscious drapery as in the case of Rosso or It is an island while compositions proceed by elongated proportions, highly stylized poses and allegoric artific…

The result is both a crucial document and a total celebration of two artists, collaborators, best of friends whose art serves to illuminate the breadth of solo guitar, from …
