Castelli's painting is thought,
cultured, it needs to be cultivated, assimilated during the time in order to be
understood and appreciated.
In the last years his paintings
begin to represent less and less of the external world, and more and more
of the inner world and the unconscious.
He begins the cycle of bizarre
objects, with analytical references to the theories of the mind and the bizarre
objects of Bion. Fragments of things, emotions and thoughts, that are not
still structured, but carrying still an incomplete meaning, not known
jet, enter in scene occupying the painted space and are projected on the
canvas, they like “pittogrammi” of a narration still to complete.
Anomalous objects, spaceships, diamonds, hourglasses, containers of “no things”
and scattered things, coffee beans, grinders, plows, archaic objects with
their hardness and simplicity, they express force and energy.
The cycles of the “White and
Black” and the cycle of the “Abstract and Changing Landscapes” are full
of colours, movements and energy. The spontaneity of the gesture is
united with the suspension of the images, like a shot, where bizarre
objects , fragments of things are represented on the canvas, before
catching up the thoroughness of the entire objects.
