Desc. : In this work I wanted to represent the self-celebration of evil using a character from my youth. The painting was born on a hot summer in Rome for an exhibition in Milan and It was conceived as a' run fast 'piece, but then, at the same manner of other works of mine it was more challenging than I expected. It shows a character of the comic book series by DC Comics 'Batman', or rather the residual essence of his spirit burning for eternity in a fiery pit. In the stories in which the Joker appears, he is presented in different ways. Some authors prefer to give emphasis to his human nature, diverted because of personal tragedy: an accident, during an escape from a chemical factory, at the culmination of an illegal and desperate action, transforms an socially failed man in an almost theatrical tragicomic character that is able to inspire compassion, because of his condition, even the superhero who defends the innocent by his cruel crimes. Others mark the accent on his fun madness, creating a clownesque character at the same time extremely dangerous. I do not like too much
