Painting is, for Vittorio Mazzucconi, an "inner journey" that goes from eros to transcendence, with images that present themselves with astonishing truth. His path passes through the women he loved and who, in the exhibition, take the names of mythological figures, suggesting the deepest presence of the fundamental archetypes of life.

With eyes fixed on this "super-reality" the events of contemporary art only appear

superficial, ideological and commercial inventions of the "exterior" path, so far from that

interior of true art.

Show no. 6, 1992-93 Freedom

The image of the dawn is always present in Mazzucconi's paintings, with its own spiritual meaning ("Aurora", "Aurora africana"). "The inner harmony" is associated with it, which is also an aurora, precisely internal, and "The Self that speaks to the soul".

The "Creation of Eve" and "Joy in Spring" refer to loves lived in freedom, i.e. with less emotional involvement than in other experiences.
