This exhibition contains the recent results of a dark period, the result of a choral and shared reflection that identifies our time. Each work I received represented a horizon for me, a flash in the dark, because tragedies also bring opportunities with them. Even if art didn’t save us, it allowed us not to stop, despite the difficult waters we kept the course together, ferrying towards a new season, despite everything.

-
Trusting a black and white with strong contrasts is the evocative feature of this shot … the ” Microphone … 50s “ as well as being a tribute to the past, is a happy technical insight that fixes the subject on black textures Almost as if he emerged from memory to share his instant memory. The imaginative find of staring at what you see, to make even more visible, confirms the bizarre and imaginative universe of Ugo Maria CIONFRINI’s photography. –

2012 – The Pure Nature of Nature in Calcata
- Reporter Maria ARCIDIACONO – Calcata (VT), Baronale Palazzo degli Anguillara – sponsored by the Council of Culture of the town of Calcata and the Valle del Treja Park (staff), May 5th. (solo exhibition)
- Inauguration on Saturday 5 May in Calcata (VT) in the Palazzo Baronale degli Anguillara, the solo exhibition “The pure soul of nature” by Ugo Maria Cionfrini. The photographer from the Marche has long dedicated his attention to nature and in his shots it seems to want to capture the pristine essence. Whether it is the moment in which the water jets become sculptured or when the wind makes poppies dance, his eye seems careful to simply return the dialogue between nature itself and man, too often interrupted or Forgot.
Not looking for a sophisticated and perfect image Ugo Maria CIONFRINI, uses the photographic medium with honesty and innocence, is the first to surprise discovering the small wonders that make a unique and unrepeatable moment. His spontaneous passion, devoid of virtuosic filters, gives his works a reading that ranges effortlessly between the free abstract construction and the vision of fairy-tale figures. Extremely close-up details of food, daring filiform structures of spiderwebs, colored light games, everything is observed by Cionfrini with passionate and smiling eyes; every gray and cynical daily conditioning is swept away by the freshness and wonder of those who want to tell the poetry of beauty that still fortunately surrounds us.

Com And where the idea of interpreting it, so differently, is that
Do we all see it as simple clutches? (Somewhere I read that she does
Reference to an area of Rome)
Answer: I was walking in this “area of Rome, imp
I looked back in front of a with this Zampillo and my attention was drawn
Of the thousand colors dancing around him, I heard myself calling from a voice that came from “the same”
not I can explain it to words but I started to open the stand, position my
reflex camera and I started taking frames to this “living” creature that is
The water itself. At every normal shot, 1/125, I felt something inside me,
every so I looked through the viewer and could see something surprising
tooth, this zampillo It seemed to have a soul, since 2009 I have not gone to
find it …
It can explain why 2 exhibitions at Calcata and at the same time?
Answer: … I soon said I had this opportunity being invited both
From the Councilor to Culture both from the gallery and since I liked the idea for me
very original to do two contemporary personal exhibitions I put it into practice
This is what I wanted to create “curiosity” (MY GREAT DISEASE, LA

The photograph titled: “ Balls … bowling “ was misinterpreted by a judge who told me via email that it was a trivial photo and did not want to make controversy but, He did not understand that they were not really two bowling balls but … two simple grapes, in my opinion if you do not have a sensitive soul on some things there is little to do they do not get there.

http://www.lalampadina.net/magazine/2014/02/abbiamo-ospiti-fotografia-zampilli-di-vita/
We have guests – photography: life pushes.
by Guest Author • 17 February 2014
Article by Ugo Maria CIONFRINI, – Guest author of LA LAMPADINA
My friend Beppe Zezza – in truth he is a friend of my mother, a question of registry office – he is my admirer. He registered me among the recipients of the newsletter “La Lampadina” and I have been stopping for months asking me to write an article that describes my artistic inspiration. “La Lampadina” – he says, and I must recognize with reason – always dedicates a space to art and therefore is a suitable place. ”
But talking about oneself is difficult for an artist: what drives him is an inner “fire” but he speaks with the tones that “he feels” inevitably risks appearing “over the top”!
For the friendship with Beppe, I try.
Who am I ? A photographer. A photographer and a curious person. For this innate curiosity, when free from the (hard) commitments that life imposes for the need to put together bread and something more, I have always turned with the Reflex to fix environments, colors, characters that struck my imagination.
One day I found myself in front of a fountain and I started looking at the gush of water – jets of life – musodilevriero was a “strange” fact: my attention was attracted by the colors that were playing around to him and I felt like a voice, coming from the “same” who called me. So I took the Reflex, I mounted the tripod and started shooting. The gush was no longer an inert matter but a living creature that took on new and fantastic aspects from time to time. An amazing and exciting thing …
The technology of photography has made it possible for me to transpose the emotions I felt in an “objective” way and allowed me to put them in common and transmit them. Great is my satisfaction when, in the numerous exhibitions in which I exposed the best of my shots, I see in the eyes of the visitors the same amazement that I felt and I feel.
My hope (or illusion?) Is that attitude of curiosity about life and its hidden aspects that distinguishes me and that is the soul of my work can be transfused into the viewer.
Here are some comments that visitors have affixed to the exhibitions, in the visitors book: “I have found what your eye has seen and reinterpreted for those who cannot see!” “In the thousandth of a second is enclosed forever the form “of nature”. “Only the very attentive eye is able to perceive what the common eye cannot even see”.
In the image attached to this article I give you an idea of what I do …
At my next show you are all invited! To look..and comment…
