"The radiant child" reagiva a gioie e dolori con ambivalenza. Con lui l'arte non è più apocalittica né astratta, ma tribale, sfrontata e lirica. Elegante-mente stropicciato.
This is a song for the genius child.
Sing it softly, for the song is wild.
Sing it softly as ever you can -
Lest the song get out of hand.
Sing it softly, for the song is wild.
Sing it softly as ever you can -
Lest the song get out of hand.
Nobody loves a genius child.
Can you love an eagle,
Tame or wild?
Can you love an eagle,
Wild or tame?
Can you love a monster
Of frightening name?
Nobody loves a genius child.
Kill him - and let his soul run wild.
Langston Hughes
"I don't listen to what art critics say. I don't know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is."
