The Resurrection - Detail: The Rapture

Graphite pencil on paper. 1990.

artbwf says:
do you also like William Blake?
Posted 2 months ago. ( permalink | delete )

MichelAngelo▲ says:
I don't know William Blake's art work. Just to avoid misunderstandings: I don't like Michelangelo. I am Michelangelo. And this is not a joke or some internet fantasy to hide my identity. All information about myself is on the internet. Soon I will put english subtitles on my documentary film "Icarus, Contemplation & Dream" about my personal story, and finish this language barrier.

William Blake was an English artist,writer who made mystical/religious figures, some that looked like yours. Interesting to see you don't like Michelangelo. Thanks for that comment.

How very touching and beautiful. Is this Mary and Ann, her mother, or Mary and Elizabeth? I love the one holding Jesus and the look of shock on her face, or is that a yawn? The red sketching is powerful.

MichelAngelo▲ says:
Thank you, aongarcia. This is a study for a painting I never did. It's a Madonna and St Anne with child. The red of the "sangüinea" (sanguine ink) would be the spiritual atmosphere to achieve.

Hi aongarcia

There is not a yawm. St Anne is scared. Someone is approaching.

aongarcia says:
Someone who wants to do harm to her Grandchild?
Posted 6 months ago. ( permalink | delete )

MichelAngelo▲ says:
No. She is scared because of the mistery to be kept secret. She don't know what to say or how to explain the child's birth.

Thank you, ● Marine Guardian ● アリ ●

Há muito não se ergue
Divina presença em colossal corpo
Há muito não se contempla
A autêntica ideia de imemorial torso
Há muito não se traça
A trilha que a vista perpassa
Ao longo do braço que fura o espaço
Tocando a essência de perdida vida
Que a todos cante
A força da origem
A memória sem história
Dos olhos em soberbo semblante

Icarus - Geometric Structure

That's me and the wood structure, in 1995.

The battle between the normal logic of being and the madness that I was involved in took place. The result of this battle is the wood structure called Icarus (this sculpture was created to allow me an accurate comparison with the Rebel Slave), where I found a lot of 3-dimensional qualities defining my natural identity as Michelangelo.

The Icarus Challenge

Close-up of the front view of Icarus final plaster model. 1986.

The Icarus Challenge:
To start understanding the essence of Icarus body, just try to repeat his gesture and torso movement in front of a mirror. No matter how your body is different from him, just try it and observe your reflecting image. Compare what you saw in the mirror to Icarus expression.
To make a more accurate comparison, take a picture of a male friend with body features close to Icarus repeating the sculpture pose. Do it. See the visual result you've achieved. And then, tell me what did you learn with this simple experience.


Mijonju says:
hey michelangelo! this is really cool when are you going to finish this?
Posted 2 months ago. ( permalink | delete )

MichelAngelo▲ says:
Hi Mijonju (影響)
Sadly, I finished the structure but I didn't have the facilities to execute the statue. I hope someday I will carve it in styrofoam and then mold it with resin and marble dust. See the Set: Icarus - Geometric Structure

The Deposition Of Christ

The clay model. 1996.

BART H says:
Are you doing these totally by your own ? In ancient culture, works like the Laocoon group took five or six people to complete. This is your daily fitness-exercise, right ?
Posted 4 months ago. ( permalink | delete )

MichelAngelo▲ says:
Hi BART H
This was my daily fitness-exercise on 1996. Tomorrow I will post images of me working on it. It's a small clay model.

This is beautiful! Respect to your 'spontaneous knowledge' and dexterity.

And how big is the real sculpture?
Or... are you going to create it now?

Be well!

Well done!!

MichelAngelo▲ says:
Hi Lambrini
This a small clay model. The sculpture size is about 65x60x60 cm (26x24x24 inches). I don't have money and a place to make it in large size. Soon will put a donate button on my Flickr page and ask people to help me to create The Resurrection (a huge sculpture project).
All my art work are from the 90's. I'm looking for an art institution, or a person, to keep it all. I hope that someone in the US or Italy will get interested.

Thank you, Lorena Mocelin

Thanx, duccesco

Thank you, Andreas Constantinou ®

Hello, MichelAngelo!
I wish you soon find an art enthusiast appreciating and ready to finance your big projects!
And yes, the donate button is a good idea. Little by little we can also help a bit.

Hi, ChiaNi
Thanks for your words. There's a lot more to come.
You are a very talented painter. :-)

Hi, Lambrini
I'm doing what I can. I hope there will be time to do something. Let see what's going to happen in the nearby future.
