作者评论:

代表整个拉丁美洲形象地反映了那个地区经常发生革命或军事政变。这些若不是由美国怂恿的,也是由美国支持的(尽管我对美国有种很深的感情)这就是为什么中美洲就像是一杆机枪,发射带有美元符号的子弹。
鲜血沾污了整个拉丁美洲,包括古巴、福克兰群岛,作品展示了画家没有受他人的思想意识所操纵。马可的处事哲学是:希望别人怎么对待你,首先就要用这样的方式去对待别人

Author's comment: 

Latin America is here represented as a General because there have always been revolutions and coups d'Etat usually supported, if not instigated, by the USA (a country that, nevertheless, I do love): for this reason Central America is here depicted as a machine gun shooting "bullets" filled with U.S.$.

The blood staining all Latin America (including Cuba and the Falkland Islands) shows that the Author is not influenced by any ideology. Marco's Golden Rule, in fact, is: "Treat Others As You Would Like To Be Treated".

一般的

尽管他的吸引力不仅因为围绕着作者作品的神秘感,还因为绘画本身的能量(完全被外表所掩盖,对于新手来说,可能会被认为是无限的、非实质性的、不可挽回的吸引),但它是尽管如此,还是一个景点。最好不要见将军!最好不要认识他!要是他从来没有被画过就好了!

过忽视人们的存在,通过表现得像最神圣的女主角一样难以接近,最高统帅达到了相反的效果:他吸引了更多深入阅读所需的注意力。

结果人们发现,他除了不屑的目光之外,还紧紧的抿着嘴唇。事实上,你能看到的唯一张开的嘴就是那个射出装满美元的的嘴,而且它不是用来满足整个拉美的需要的,而只是用来满足拉美将军的需要的!

夺拉丁美洲的美国将军们表情是那么僵硬,仿佛被对绝对权力的贪婪所欺骗。这张脸太恶心了,对人皱眉(好像他对每个人都生气,甚至包括你!) 最好不要看到!还不如离他远一点

The General

Although he exercises an attraction due not only to the mystery surrounding the Author’s works, but also to the energy of the painting itself (perfectly concealed by a look that, to a neophyte, could appear irreparably attracted by infinity, by nothingness), it is better not to see The General! Better not to know him! Better… if he had never been painted!

By ignoring people’s presence, by appearing as unapproachable as the most divine Diva, the Supreme Commander obtains the opposite effect: he captures the greater attention needed to a deeper reading.

As a result, it is noticed that, besides disdaining other people’s look, he keeps his lips firmly tightened. The only open mouth you can see, in fact, is the one shooting “shells” full of U$ dollars the use of which is not meant to satisfy the needs of Latin America in general, but only those of the Generals of Latin America!

With such a stiff face, The General U$ed, who has abU$ed of Latin America, seems bewitched by the avidity of Absolute Power. A face so repulsive and frowning at people (as if he were angry at everybody, even at you!) it’s better not to see! Better to stay away from him!

马可因出版了一幅独特的画作《拉丁美洲:将军的背叛》而声名鹊起,该画作探讨了战争的破坏性,并通过尖锐的讽刺争议解决了这个尖锐的问题。它引发了对地理学——政治和地理学的反思。经济利益引发了战争,尽管这幅作品可以追溯到八十年代,但这幅画在今天仍然非常受欢迎和相关。 ”Sabrina Falzoni 博士

"Marco had a taste of fame with the presentation of a unique work entitled “Latin America: The General U$ed”, which deals with the destruction of war, dressing that cutting controversy in sharp irony. It provokes people to reflect on the geo-political and economic interests that give rise to war and even though the piece dates back to the Eighties, the canvas is extremely current and relevant today".
