There are still some painters who, by refusing the triangular system of the artist at the orders of the gallerist and the critic (but it would be better to call him “purchase counsellor”, with the language of marketing), create according to the rules of slow painting: culture, silence, meditation, slow maturation of the works, especially if, like Dora’s works, they are provocatively created by means of glaze: dry glazes, as the painter explains, without diluents and applied with old brushes.
