EXHIBITION ANNAMARIA CIMBAL THE EMOTIONAL GUIDANCE SYSTEM BROADWAY GALLERY NEW YORK

Do you know what one of the greatest risks to human beings is in our time? Overcome by too many stimuli, it is that of no longer feeling anything, of sheltering from all emotions, of anaesthetising oneself for fear of being hurt.
The title of the exhibition "THE EMOTIONAL GUIDANCE SYSTEM" hypothesizes that,
just as there exists a central and peripheral nervous system, so there should be an organ, a system of emotional and intuitive guidance, a sort of sixth sense which, consciously connected to thought, would ensure alignment with the source of vital and creative energy.
Describing feelings is not easy. I like to think that the word emotion (in Italian EMOZIONE) comes from emo-azione (action) rather the action of blood (from the Greek, emo, blood), that is the MOVEMENT OF BLOOD AROUND THE BODY, SUCH AN EXTRAORDINARY MOVEMENT WHICH QUICKENS THE BODY AND THE SPIRIT.
For what would life be without feelings and what would ART BE WITHOUT FEELINGS?.............
