Description: Milano: Skira, 2015. 28cm., hardcover, 272pp. illus. Exhibition held at GAM, Milano. Italian-English text. Summary: Don’t shoot the painter is an ironic reference to classic western movies, in which the painter is compared to a saloon pianist: every time that the ideas and languages of art become too confused and make it difficult to understand the meaning of individual elements, painting focuses everyone’s attention on what we can all understand and interpret, just like a pianist’s music brings peace back to the room at the end of western movies. So, don’t shoot the painter! Listen to his music!
