A street artist at the time of the corona virus

HOW SHAMEFUL JORIT'S HUG WITH PUTIN IN MARCH 2024!!


THE AUTHORS OF THIS POST WILL NO LONGER FOLLOW AN ARTIST WHO LENDS HIMSELF TO THE PROPAGANDA OF A KILLER REGIME.



Here we are at the third episode of our Special Antivirus. As you will remember, for a couple of years we have been dealing with street art and in particular with the production of Jorit Agoch, the native artist of Quarto (NA) who in recent times has created an impressive amount of murals scattered almost everywhere. in the Neapolitan area, with episodes also in Florence and Moscow; the works were dedicated to personalities of the caliber of Pasolini, Kobe Bryant, Nelson Mandela, Yuri Gagarin, Giancarlo Siani and via pitted. Certainly in this period the activity of those who paint murals is at a standstill, and it could not be otherwise; however we want to give you an account of two recent productions of our street artist that in some way have to do with the period of time we live. Let's start with the oil painting on canvas that Jorit dedicated to Dr. Paolo Ascierto, the oncologist and researcher from Campania who is experimenting a treatment protocol for patients affected by the coronavirus; the painting has been auctioned online and the proceeds from the sale, which will continue until the end of the health emergency, will be divided in half between the Pascale Institute of Naples and the Lombardy Region.


The other work we want to show you is this mural, dedicated to the Cumaean Sibyl, which Jorit began to paint in a street in Bacoli (NA) and, in agreement with the mayor, interrupted when the health situation precipitated. In the background of the painting you can see the Piscina Mirabilis, the large cistern into which the waters from the Serino, in the Avellino area, flowed to supply the Roman fleet at Miseno:


And then we greet you, with the certainty that soon we will be able to return to admire this work on the street and to practice our accessible tourism with the utmost serenity.
