It’s discussed in all the newspapers, television continues to air the trailer of the new film of Ridley Scott – already writer of “The Gladiator” and above all “Blade Runner”.

toccafondo2It’s about the new colossal revival of the legend of Robin Hood, which, among other things, on May 12th, opened the 2010 edition of the Cannes Festival, but not everyone knows that the first and the last minutes of this film, with the theme song and final credits have the signature of a refined and genius Italian artist.  He is Gianluigi Toccafondo, born in Santoccafondo3 Marino in 1965 e raised in Romagna, which he has always chosen as a pictorial and poetic means, a material apparently cold and technological such as video.

Toccafondo with an original style, which boasts of numerous imitations, is able to create some hybrid animations in which some liquid and often explosive strokes disrupt the contours and the shapes, of the people and the objects shot by the camera.

He often intervened on the footage videos, which give a measure of a temporary alienation, working in many occasions for theme songs and commercials, both for both television and film, or realising artistic short films dedicated to Pinocchio and other literary characters.
