Sardinian art, in all its facets, it reaches from memory, tradition and witho
ut omitting innovation. Starting from sculpture, Menhirs, the refined ceramics of the Neolithic, the bull heads carved into the rock, the nuragic bronzetti we can follow a thread of evolution to get to contemporary times, and this influences are still alive.
Through this evolution painting, literature, ceramics, ramble be
tween past and present showing their solid roots. Modern as the same as primitive sculptures such as Costantino Nivola's, the island, its dramatics and intense faces, the hystory, the sense of divinity of the painter Mario Delitala, the stories of memory and therefore personal narrated by Grazia Deledda, the novels by Giuseppe Dessì have insular connotations but adapt themselves to a more general level until we 
arrive to Sergio Atzeni and Hantó: these authors narrate Sardinia, not still an island but now a micro cosmos.
This micro cosmos gets imploded in the pictures of ph
otographers such as Alberto Zilaghe who narrates
Sardinia's poetry with pictures, and the nature photography of Mauro Sanna who makes travel with his camera around Sardinia, as we can travel through time with the timeless artistic ceramics of Giuseppe Deiana.
