Better to write for yourself and have no public than to write for the public and have no self. (Conolly)


Al final de una conferencia, una joven estudiante se acercó a Michel Foucault para contarle que estaba trabajando en una tesis acerca de su obra.
"qué pena que no haga hermenéutica...", le contestó Foucault...


Hay malechores que serían mucho menos peligrosos si no tuviesen pisca de bondad (Lichtemberg, creo, o La Rochefoucauld...)

    "Poche persone sanno scrivere poesie di luce come quelle che recitano le immagini di Gabriel."

    Ana.Caldas says:

    "As fotografias do Gabriel são feitas com um sentido único de observação do presente, do que ficou para trás no tempo, nos tempos que as pessoas vão deixando atrás de si. Ainda que o que possamos ver sejam as costas dos outros. estas podem ser também as nossas. um fardo que carregamos e onde nos mexemos.
    Depois existe essa sensiblidade e respeito pelas pessoas. Por outro lado um sentido de humildade bonito e raro. è com a verdade que nos confrontamos nas fotos do Gabriel. único. Obrigada pela partilha. obrigada por cremos que o tango pode ser mais do que paixão e canção. Tal como o fado, o tango é um estado de espirito""

    " … gabrielcito’s work
    is a fountain of dynamic movement,
    and with it,
    we no longer have any need for Duchamp
    or his urinal
    or nudes descending staircases."

    "Gabriel´s pictures conform visions of another world, of his world, portrayed as his mind sees it, much more than just photographs, this is art."

    "
    Las fotos de Gabriel son visiones,
    van más allá de lo fotográfico.

    Se ve el aura de lo vivo, y de lo ausente.

    "If Gabriel lived at the early 20th century, I am sure that he would leave Argentina for going to Paris and join the circle of all these great artists and writers of that period… I can easily imagine him talking with Sartre or Camus about the human existence or the misery that we made gift to ourselves.

    Photography is only one of the ways he has discovered to talk about our world and broken dreams, our disappointments and hopes. That’s why his photos are not just photos. Each one of them hides all the power of his soul poetry and visions…

    Genius but gentle, tender but sarcastic, poetic but pragmatist, the voice of this man has tremendous power and that’s why he is one my most favourite personas and artists at flickr.

    My beloved friend, “don’t give up, we are proud of who you are”."

    "Gabriel is a poet holding a camera instead of a pen... His visual poetry is the fast lane if your destination is the divine, and his pictures is the only way to see a world you can not touch, or to touch a world you can not see...

    Thank you my friend for giving my the privilege to have access to your world."

    "Amo molto le opere di Gabriel Magri...mi fanno pensare istintivamente al genio di Franco Fontana (fotografo a cui lui stesso si ispira). Anche se il concetto che Gabriel infonde nelle sue immagini si rivela sostanzialmente diverso. Il suo estro creativo trae origine dall'arte concettuale dadaista... Ferma l'oggetto, la scena, estrapolandoli dai loro contesti di origine; con estrema sintesi gli fa assumere un significato diverso, in simbiosi all'emozione che in quell'istante si è rivelata nella mente e nel cuore dell'artista. Non ha importanza se l'oggetto d'origine è un'opera d'arte o...qualsiasi cosa. E' importante cosa diventa dopo: un prodotto nuovo, con nuovi significati e quindi nuove emozioni... E questo è, a mio parere, una cosa meravigliosa!

    Grazie Gabriel, continua a incantarci con le tue opere."
