Exhibition held at Societą Promotrice delle Belle Arti, Torino. Italian-English text. Summary: Mach recalls to mind the great biblical themes, makes them act and live in actuality, compresses and expands the time in a constant hic et nunc, a here and now that establishes the constant struggle of man, his fragility, his finiteness . [...] The collages of David Mach is inspired by the King James Bible, which is the English Anglican Bible commissioned by King James in 1611, the place where the profile of the scenes, in spite of the sacred text, are our cities, the larger towns, distinguished by their profile, the skyline, for architecture or buildings known. The cities selected are located in the background, and in fact the system remembers the backgrounds of the paintings of the fifteenth century, when it was looking for a bell tower, a bridge, a river or a rock known to establish a precise geographical locations.
