reDADA is basically “recycling". It is a philosophical exercise on the visual arts in the era of symbolic producers and globalization, evoking the always healthy habit of returning to the roots, to the very beginning of the storm that transformed all contemporary art. It is an "ecological" attempt of semiotic recycling, in a dialogue charged of humor and insight, where universal symbols of the visual arts are reused and associations are generated which hopefully are worth exploring.
It is undoubtedly a game, where the given objects and symbols of art history are rearranged in a new sense, as in a universal exquisite corpse, a collage of carefully reordered concepts, with the patience and insomnia of the art historian and the craftsmanship of the artist by trade.
reDADA aims at a timeless visuality, crossing and intermingling aesthetic and historical barriers, in an attempt to transmit a heritage of intricate ideas in a simple and efficient way, at times using the language of graphic arts, together with the charm and "spiritual" subtlety of the pictorial trade.
