The artist condenses themes and motifs based on philosophical elaboration both from Italian and French authors, such as Roland Barthes, Michel Foucault, Jean Baudrillard, Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari and Giorgio Agambem. In the sixties, the boom for communication studies and ideological content start to integrate his artwork proposals. ![]() This quality of his artwork has been able to deploy from Mauri´s own family cultural enterprises, including publishing industry, film and theatre. In fact, since the beginning of his production in the late fifties, his visual and poetic artwork focus the debate on the culture of image and language as consumer goods of the cultural industry. Master of the Italian New Avant-Garde and founder of some of the most remarkable magazines that nourish the cultural debate in those years -like Almanaque Bompiani-, Mauri interacted with figures such as Italo Calvino, Umberto Eco and Pier Paolo Pasolini, and with visual artists and curators as Maurizio Calvesi, Jannis Kounellis and Carlo Boatto.Īccording to Mauri, the artist not only operates as an "image maker", but he should also be an intellectual in movement to express in the world.
