A great artist and a man with a pure and good spirit has passed away.
Raffaele Turati appeared randomly in my life through contact with a mutual friend, also a painter.
It was like the dazzling passage of a comet whose shape and contours you cannot focus on but you perceive its great light and uniqueness capable of dazzling anyone.
What can you write about this very special being? Trying to translate into words what can be read so clearly by observing his works appears to be a vain and reductive attempt, the emotions and contents of his paintings speak to everyone without the need for any intermediation or interpretation, they undoubtedly represent his soul, that soul transparent that has always lived in a dreamlike dimension, weightless and full of lightness, his was a perpetual play between sky, clouds, dreamy characters, colorful houses... in which even the same bright colors contributed to communicating joyfulness and amazement.
I was lucky to meet him on his earthly path, it is not often that you come across these angels who unfortunately are becoming increasingly rare.
But Raffaele has not gone away, he will continue to speak to us through his wonderful works and this is a great fortune for all of us who knew him because in this way his presence will always remain alive and tangible.
Thank you Raffaele , now you can finally fly lightly in that blue sky that was part of your dreams, finally free and full of light like the one that your sweet light eyes have always generously given to everyone.
