作者评论:

就像阿斯托夫被送上月球去追回奥兰多失去的理智，但找到了一个盛有自己理智的细颈瓶一样，我也去月球上旅游一下，以便找回我的理智。

Author's comment:

Like Astolfo, who, sent to the Moon to recover Orlando's lost mind, encountered an ampoule containing his own, so I took a trip to the Moon in search of my lost mind...

Sabrina Falzone 博士在 FAfotoantologia.it 上发表了关于作者参加第六届佛罗伦萨双年展的评论：

在中国最著名的外国艺术家马尔科·萨尔瓦多·马拉马奇 (Marco Salvatore Mallamaci) 将参加第六届“国际当代艺术双年展”，该活动由组织机构 Arte Studio 宣布并得到意大利共和国总统的大力赞助。展览在佛罗伦萨的 Fortezza da Basso 展览馆举行，靠近新圣母玛利亚教堂。

2007年12月1日至9日，Marco的三幅画作将与来自76个国家的840位艺术家的其他作品一起抵达艺术之都，为不同文化、语言和风格之间带来一场非凡的邂逅。

展出的是马可的三幅具有重大革命意义的油画画布：《阿斯托尔福的安瓿》、《加上你的签名！》和“佩内洛普的画布......尤利西斯”。后者是“佩内洛普的画布......为她的追求者”的吊坠，两者都非常原创，因为它们不完整：它们被艺术家故意留白，艺术家打算在佩内洛普完成画布编织后立即对它们进行绘画：它们是两个，因为较大的一张是为尤利西斯准备的，另一张较小的则是为她的追求者准备的。

“加上你的签名！”，这位艺术家自己定义为“后、后、后当代”的作品，无非是最非凡的杰作，因为它可能是唯一由素未谋面的艺术家共同签名的杰作，以后也不会再见面；最便宜的，因为要加上一个人的签名，需要支付一亿欧元，但同时也是最慈善的，因为所支付的金额将完全专门用于来自发展中国家的特别聪明但极其贫困的学生的教育;最后，最不朽的是，因为世界上最重要的博物馆可以竞相展示最后一分钱来展出这部价值不菲的作品，从而使作者永垂不朽。

佛罗伦萨双年展是最大的当代艺术展览，每天上午 10 点至晚上 8 点开放。位于 Fortezza da Basso 展览中心 Spadolini 馆的下层。

Comment by Dr. Sabrina Falzone who – on FAfotoantologia.it – writes regarding the author’s participation in the sixth edition of the Florence Biennale:

Marco Salvatore Mallamaci, the most famous foreign artist in China, will participate in the 6th edition of the “International Biennial of Contemporary Art”, announced by the organizing body Arte Studio and with the High Patronage of the President of the Italian Republic, which will take place in Florence at the exhibition pavilions of the Fortezza da Basso, located near Santa Maria Novella.

From 1 to 9 December 2007, three of Marco’s paintings will reach the art capital, together with other works by 840 artists from 76 nations for an extraordinary meeting between different cultures, languages and styles.

On display are three canvases by Marco, painted in oil, of great revolutionary significance: “Astolfo’s Ampoule”, “Add your signature!” and “Penelope’s Canvas… for Ulysses”. The latter is the pendant of “Penelope’s Canvas… for her Suitors”, both very original in their incompleteness: they have been deliberately left blank by the artist, who intends painting them as soon as Penelope finishes weaving the canvases: they are two because the larger one is for Ulysses and the other, smaller in size, for her Suitors.

“Add your signature!”, the work that the artist himself defines as “post, post, post-contemporary” is nothing else than the most extraordinary masterpiece because it could be the only masterpiece co-signed by artists who probably have never met, nor will they meet in future; the cheapest because to add one’s signature, one is required to pay one hundred million euros, but at the same time also the most charitable because the sum paid would be used entirely and exclusively for the education of particularly intelligent but extremely poor students from developing countries; finally, the most immortal because the most important museums in the world could compete to the last cent to be able to host this $u¢¢€$$fu£ work, making the author immortal.

The Florence Biennale, the largest contemporary art exhibition, can be visited every day from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on the lower floor of the Spadolini Pavilion inside the Fortezza da Basso exhibition center.
