Alongside his paintings, Chicco Calleri left us a zibaldone of thoughts entitled 'Treatise on Painting'. It is a collection of about 140 pages that brings together writings, thoughts and aphorisms drawn from his intense experience as a painter.

Chicco was a great friend. During our life in his company, we learnt to cultivate a sense of friendship and realised how important it is to remain friends throughout life until the end. We think that many, like us, will want to remember our friend and cherish his words.

We therefore propose the publication of 'Treatise on Painting' in a book. It will be a limited and numbered edition by the publisher Disegnograve of Rovereto (Trento). The cost is 15 EURO per copy.

If you would like to reserve one or more copies of the book, click on "Donate" and enter the amount requested (NB: select "Other amount"). If you think you will not be able to collect your copy(s) personally in Syracuse or Milan, please add the shipping costs and indicate your address in the "Message to the organiser".

The subscription will remain open until 30 November 2024.

Andrea Cutrale, Maurizio Borghi and Davide Valenti
