Ugo Cornia
My life: Ugo Cornia was born in Carpi on 6/7/65 and lives in Modena.
He
has worked with Comix and Il Semplice, and is currently
working with Il Caffé Illustrato and has
published two books with Sellerio: Sulla felicità
a oltranza, and Quasi amore. He doesn't like talking
about his life as he feels it's immaterial. Indeed
he feels his work, his taste and all that has happened
to him are immaterial. However, out of formality,
and preferring not to leave a blank space instead
of the conventional things people say about themselves,
a blank space could after all give rise to the same
uneasiness as those short bursts of silence on television
between one noise and the next, which leave us bewildered,
awaiting the end of the world; so given all our
misgivings about white and silence, he wrote this,
which being written you may think says something
when in truth it says nothing at all.
