The Catania artist, known ceramist and painter defined as Guttusian, Mimmo Allegra inspired by the apocalyptic events of 2020 and 21, surprises us by painting a very significant work to join the international Certamen on the great Cathedrals of the West, curated by the art critic Melinda Miceli and supported by the following art media: Encyclopedia of Italian art, Globus magazine, Diariodigital Spain, Arts direct France, Artes TV Web, Pittart, Oscar delle arti, Artmayeur, Information. it. A critical analysis of the work follows. "The opacity of the stone gives way to the triumph of the dazzling glass window; a mosaic composed of perspective polygons of translucent glass, similar to precious stones in primary colors, to emphasize the model, a woman in prayer. in the work from the West, it causes light to enter from the East and, passing through the windows of the apsidal part, creates games, transforming the church into the abode of light,an expression of the cosmic order and testimony of the divine triumph. "At the center of everything "we read the reflection of the artist Mimmo Allegra through the human figure, just sketched specifically, dressed in a monastic tunic, bent over itself with hands joined on the back of a simple chair. The work is stripped of frills to give emphasis on the "power of prayer", through those hands, almost virile and sure, that clasp, until they become instruments of human power in addressing the divine. The unhinging imposed by Lithuanian colorism rgic and sacred and from the ray of sun that crosses the scene, it travels erupting on everything to capture the "wonder" of the coveted "rising light". Behind an atmosphere of sacred evocation, with a very current and incisive style where everything declines from the lateral perspective, Mimmo Allegra, hides in the shining temple, the expectation of the Last Judgment and the Apocalypse, sculpted in its symbolic language on I conjure the prayer of an impersonal woman, with a very filtered femininity. Precisely in the simplification of the whole plot we can recognize the depth of the artistic message, a great warning, which inspires and encourages the observer.
