In public squares shadows lengthen their mathematical enigma; over the walls rise nonsensical towers decked with little, multicoloured flags; infinitude is everywhere, and everywhere is mystery. One thing remains, immutable, as if its roots were fixed in the bowels of eternity.
Giorgio de Chirico
De Chirico’s art is “frightening astuteness, it returns from beyond unexplored horizons to fix itself in metaphysical eternity, in the terrible solitude of an inexplicable lyricism”
