Italy, Wonder Country

By Guido Sperandio

Variations on the theme of Italy, the most famous but also to be discovered. Around Italy, here and there, the author interprets its beauty using the technique of collage, drawing on Pop Art and the Surrealists, their masters from Andy Warhol to René Magritte. To avoid misunderstandings, it is certainly not a tourist guide nor a pompous review of art. No, it's simply and only... just Pop Art.
