The new perspectives in figurative art Getting in contact with Arrigo’s painting has meant to me the discovery of new perspectives in figurative art. His cycle Acid Rain is not a simple warning scream, but also an incitement to slow down and stop to think and contemplate the beauty threatened by ourselves. I see the rain threads on the artist’s paintings as harp chords: the artist’s fingers are invisible being eaten by poison, but the mute apocalyptic music keeps on being as one thing with the image
