Photography was born in 1839 from the experiments of Daguerre and Talbot. And since 1850 it was already in common use. It was the first time that ordinary people could take a portrait. It was no longer necessary to be rich, a noble or a cleric and to pose before the painter. Photography spread everywhere, in all the cities there were photographers who with their contraption could make you a portrait so true that no painter could have gone that far.

In his dense and symbolic works, in his layered and metaphorical colours, in the drafts whose chromatic material vibrates with vital enzymes: in his latest cycle, Michele Dolz works through allusive codes in a painting that suggests a complex and articulated reflection on the soul and its human arcana.

La luce è parte principale nel definirsi della Creazione, rende possibile il nostro senso della vista e così, da questa porta principale, si forma in noi una coscienza della realtà, un’immagine del mondo. A un certo punto della storia compare la fotografia, l’invenzione-rivelazione che si serve dello spettro luminoso e innalza la luce stessa a elemento generativo e materia costitutiva dell’arte.
