Published for his eightieth birthday and for the most important exhibition ever devoted to him in Italy, the volume brings out his talent and a language able to contaminate worlds and codes, giving greater weight to social subjects such as equality between ethnic groups, war, the fight against homophobia and awareness of AIDS.

Every frame offers countless grounds for reflection on society, on humanity and on culture, and in that lies the potent force of his work: the ability to represent in an extreme synthesis a view of the world, a problem, a question that interrogates us.
