Dino Formaggio: una presentación, pp. 29-42.

Abstract

The intent of the paper is to give an overview of the personality and thought of Dino Formaggio, the center of which is the "doing." This problem has to be seen in the light of the long journey that cheese has undertaken to achieve the results delivered in his works. The doing is rooted in the sensible world, in the body, which is the source of energy that requires an expression from your inner self. It was followed by the different fields in which the expression is divided. The teaching in the first place, that cheese was living as a mission; the lessons intended as a place of dialogue and solidarity, socialization; proposed an idea of the studies did not like hard work and sacrifice, but as an intensification of life. Doing practiced then as artistic creativity, in painting, sculpture, poetry. In the same artistic enjoyment had a vision not contemplative but active, which could be summed up with the following formula: see, hear, "doing", not passively enjoy, but pour it in a do. At various levels: from understanding remaking itself (such as occurs with a Kandinsky and the Scribe of the Louvre) to the historical understanding, to philosophical reflection. It is not secondary for him to think philosophically art, but also arises from doing this, and in doing must occur and transform itself.
