THE CATALOGUE
Il mondo che ci circonda, come non l’abbiamo mai visto
The world around us, as we’ve never seen it before
4
Le opere esposte per la mostra “Colori di un’Apocalisse” non sono dipinti o composizioni realizzate
con gli strumenti digitali, ma immagini fotografiche astratte della realtà che ci circonda, come i
manifesti pubblicitari decomposti, crepe e graffi naturali, materiali urbani ed industriali
All the artworks displayed at “Colors of an Apocalypse” exhibition aren’t paintings or digitally made
compositions, but simply abstract photos of the reality around us, as decomposed publicity posters,
natural cracks and scratches, urban and industrial matters.

ROBERTO ALBORGHETTI
Giornalista professionista, autore di una quarantina tra saggi e biografie, artista e cronista visuale,
ha lavorato in periodici e quotidiani, ha curato documentari televisivi, dirige riviste specializzate nel
settore della didattica, dell’edutainment e della formazione. I suoi libri più recenti sono “Francesco”
(la prima grande biografia storica illustrata su Papa Bergoglio, monumentale opera editoriale edita
da Velar) e “Quando il giorno era una freccia” (Edizioni AGeSC, è un coinvolgente racconto sugli
anni da studente e docente del futuro Papa Francesco). Coordina workshops e crea progetti
sull’uso dei mezzi di comunicazione e sull’educazione all’immagine.
Per la sua attività giornalistica ha ricevuto diversi riconoscimenti, tra cui il Premio Acqui Terme, il
Premio Beppe Viola, il Premio Anmil Sicurezza sul Lavoro. È l’unico giornalista italiano ad avere
ricevuto l’ European Award for Environmental Reporting – il cosiddetto “Pulitzer” europeo sulle
tematiche ambientali – assegnatogli nel 1992 nel Parlamento Europeo.
“LaceR/Azioni” è l’innovativo progetto multidisciplinare che interessa la lettura dell’immagine e
l’analisi della realtà urbana. Roberto Alborghetti legge e ripropone dettagli dei manifesti
pubblicitari decomposti, dei “segni metropolitani” e industriali, come le crepe (cracks) e i graffi
naturali su metalli, rivestimenti e superfici. Ha partecipato a mostre in Italia e all’estero. I suoi
lavori sono al centro di un singolare “Atelier del colore e delle emozioni”, che coinvolge ragazzi
portatori della sindrome dello spettro autistico, attuato ad Aprilia (Latina) dalla docente Patrizia
Sapri. Una sua opera è esposta alla Raccolta Permanente di Arte Contemporanea di Mercatello S/M,
(Pesaro Urbino, Marche). Nel 2015 il suo progetto “The Ghost Bus” (L’Autobus Fantasma), in
collaborazione con Barton Plc e ACT Group (Nottingham, East Midlands) ha suscitato grande
interesse nel Regno Unito, registrando un’ eccezionale copertura mediatica.
Critici ed esperti, riferendosi agli artworks di Alborghetti, parlano di “una dinamica di linguaggio
dall’eccezionale forza evocativa”, di “nuovi punti di osservazione che travolgono sistemi di giudizio
canonici” e “rompono gli attuali schemi dell’arte visiva”, “una provocazione per gli occhi e la
mente”.
Professional reporter, author and visual artist, Roberto Alborghetti has written about forty books
(biographies, interviews, stories). He worked in magazines and newspapers and produced Tv
documentaries. His most recents best-selling books are “Francesco”, the first illustrated biography
about Pope Francis (published by Velar, large format, two special versions) and “Quando il giorno
era una freccia” (When the day was an arrow) which investigates the school years and the cultural
background of Pope Francis.
35
Editor in chief of magazines concerning didactic, education, edutainment and media literacy, he
leads workshops and conferences. He has won important journalism Prizes, such as Premio Acqui
Terme, Premio Beppe Viola, Premio Anmil Safety in Work. He is the unique Italian reporter who
received the European Award for Environmental Reporting, the so called European “Pulitzer” about
Environmental Reporting (1992, European Parliament, Strasbourg).
He created “LaceR/Actions”, a multidisciplinary project concerning researches about decomposed
publicity posters, natural cracks and scratches, urban/industrial tokens. In July 2010, thirty
thousand people visited his solo show “The Four Elements of LaceR/Actions” at Oriocenter (Milano
Bergamo Orio International Airport). In October 2011, he participated at Parallax Art Fair in London
(La Galleria, Royal Opera Arcade, Pall Mall). “The Huffington Post” (September 2011) wrote about
his artwork devoted to Nine Eleven Fallen; article by dr. Srini Pillay, Psychiatrist, Harvard clinician,
brain imaging researcher, executive coach, author. One of his artworks has been selected to be
part of the new Contemporary Art Collection in Mercatello S/M (Marche, Italy). Art critics and
experts said that Roberto Alborghetti’s art has an“exceptional and evocative dynamic”, “a strong
power of language”; he shows “new points of observation that overwhelm canonical trial
systems”, ” He breaks the current patterns of visual art.” Alborghetti’s artworks “are explosions of
color, passion, joy, sorrow, story, emotion, beauty, love…”, “They touch us on the raw and go
straight to the heart”, ” a provocation to our eyes and to our mind”.
Roberto Alborghetti exhibited in the impressive Rocca Aldobrandesca (a XIII Century fortress in
Tuscany, Siena, Italy) from October 6, 2012 to January 15, 2013. His works partecipated at
“Atelier of colors and emotions” project which involved children with disabilities (Autism Spectrum
Syndrome) in Aprilia (Latina, Italy). His most recent projects are: “Contemplations and
Lacer/actions” (album, videoclip, installations, inspired by Thomas of Bergamo Scripts (1563-
1631)); “Lacer/actions on Aluminium” (11 installation for Fai private collection). In 2015 he carried
out “The Ghost Bus” project with Bartons PLC and Act Group (UK) raising great interest and a huge
media coverage: two short films were premiered in Nottingham (March 27, 2015).

Critici ed esperti, riferendosi agli artworks di Alborghetti, parlano di “una dinamica di linguaggio dall’eccezionale forza evocativa”, di “nuovi punti di osservazione che travolgono sistemi di giudizio canonici” e “rompono gli attuali schemi dell’arte visiva”, “una provocazione per gli occhi e la mente”. Professional reporter, author and visual artist, Roberto Alborghetti has written about forty books (biographies, interviews, stories).
