enveloped in that eternal self-critical rigour that distinguished him together with his expertise in savoir faire it becomes increasingly clear how much his sceptical thinking about the new artistic vision as opposed to continuity would only bear sterile fruit totally contrary to his way of thinking about art Mazzonis's modus operandi was subservient to the laws of a solitary but salvific movement within which the male portraits all take on his likeness and the landscape - largely linked to the imagery of Böcklin and Klinger - becomes the prince in a work of art that wants him in perfect symbiosis and in masterly dialogue with the characters A life spent in the painstaking and scientific pursuit of continuity but feeling the constant presence of his Masters perceptible in its absolute contemporaneity His was a new Renaissance that has given life to a personal vision of the women of the Gospels as well as to a Way of the Cross exhibited at the Museo Parmeggiani in Cento in 2003 which - in its superb beauty - gives us the opportunity to dwell on the 14th Station: The Burial where a sense of resigned peace pervades the canvas The light falls in the centre of the painting and emphasises the relationship between Mother and Son leaving us dazzled as we recognise in the sudden movement of the standing figure the solemnity of Bistolfi's Angel of Death (visible at the Monumental Cemetery in Turin) This symbolises a complete reinvention of religious art by Mazzonis while maintaining a visible continuity with a Master from the past are the decorations of the Sanctuary of the Sanità examples of that fil-rouge that always bound him to the Sacred and Sacredness but within which past and present are not opposed It is not for nothing that Ottavio Mazzonis lives on in the words of Vittorio Sgarbi who describes him as “rigorous but not academic the studies on melancholy and the dreamlike and mythological atmospheres of his works are vivid and tangible examples of this which can be admired at the Mazzonis Foundation in Turin which survives him thanks to the indomitable and daring care of its President for life: Silvia Pirracchio Side by side with Mazzonis for thirty years Silvia is now the elected witness of what was a true communion of intentions Mazzonis painted her (and painted himself alongside her) incessantly turning her into the keeper of countless keys to interpretation Details that he explained to us in our interview together with the future he hopes for the Foundation The importance of his legacy has always been of fundamental importance to me I can mention in this sense some of the monographic exhibitions at the Reggia di Venaria (2018) at the Accorsi-Ometto Foundation (2015) and in Mondovì (2014) the theme of motherhood was investigated and I chose thirty works by the Maestro put in relation with others of ancient art from the rich collections of his family - among whose names are Legnanino and Solimena - most of which are already preserved in the historic Turin palace Exhibitions that have been very successful has always been quite isolated from the art scene in Turin apart from private galleries such as Fogliato organising an exhibition in Turin - in fact - has always been difficult I believe that the city has never really felt him to be a leading exponent perhaps because of a certain school of thought in Turin that is too tied to the avant-garde Although he was professionally linked to Tiziano Forni in the last period of his life he was pessimistic about the future of his legacy often wonder who - after me - will dedicate themselves to his work with the same respect and continuity I have been committed to giving him maximum visibility even taking him to the Biennale - thanks to Sgarbi's supervision - with the project for the altarpieces of Noto Cathedral His Tiepolism in his studies of light is famous gave him the opportunity to mirror the enlightenment of Tiepolo and to approach composition freely when he sensed that the pictorial composition was as he wished he devoted himself to sculpture; as he was born as an artist under the guidance of the sculptor Calderini depicting Silvia and exhibited at the 1999 monographic exhibition in Aosta constantly listening to the possibilities offered by the past a true guiding spirit in the search for intonation and the simplification of pain When he elaborated the composition and searched for it in the synthesis of light One thinks of Böcklin's islands (which I exhibited in Mondovì) won over by the particularity of the movement I dedicate it to you because it was exhibited in '61 at the Quadriennale in Rome and that is the year you were born it will be one of my bequests to the Foundation” Sgarbi immediately fell in love with it and Flora Giubilei included it in a large monographic exhibition dedicated to Duncan which was very successful both in Florence and Rovereto Painting and sculpture were one and the same for Mazzonis Let us also think about the relationship with Wolfgang Alexander Kossuth [Editor's note: Kossuth dedicated one of the many splendid sculptural portraits to Mazzonis Theirs is a very special story: Kossuth became acquainted with Mazzonis's art on the occasion of the monographic exhibition in Aosta and a great friendship was immediately born Mazzonis himself will devote himself to organising the monographic exhibition dedicated to Kossuth at the Promotrice di Belle Arti in Turin in 2002 will set up a piano concert in honour of his Via Crucis a pedestrian path was named after Mother Catherine Daghero Cumiana (Italy).
