It rivets his attention and imposes him a symbol of which will stay associated to the subject. |

"The dynamic which animates Cappiello's compositions followes from the idea and the representation that the artist chooses for shaping it. Cappiello's world is moving... Animales caracole, stamp about, frolic, genius and devils dance and spin round. But the movement, it is also the line, soft and powerfull, which gives his impulsion to the poster and makes it lively." |
