The color of silence

The color of silence. .. You know what?

It 's the international bibliographic dictionary of deaf artists. (Milan, 2007, published by Mondadori Electa) available in bookstores throughout Italy.

"The color in the silence" is a book that collects for the first time extensive biographical and iconographic documentation relating to deaf Italian and foreign artists.

Why are there so many deaf artists in art history? As affecting the particular artistic creation, the most acute sensitivity to perceive la realtà di chi nasce sordo o perde l’udito?

La ricerca condotta per un dizionario internazionale, che risponde a queste domande e contribuisce a colmare una lacuna importante nella letteratura sulla “cultura sorda”, è pubblicato in occasione del 3° Convegno Nazionale sulla Lingua dei Segni (Verona).

Dalle ricerche condotte in Italia, ma anche all’estero emerge come la modalità visiva dei Sordi rappresenti uno strumento privilegiato di espressione e comunicazione con esiti talvolta altissimi e sorprendenti .

Facendo un breve escursuss tra alcuni artisti famosi spicca l'esempio di Goya , il quale diventò sordo (all’età forty-six years) after an illness, an experience that influenced his character and profondamentesul on his painting, which appear increasingly dramatic accents, nightmares and tension.

Goya is not the only example we also see Pinturicchio or English portrait painter Joshua Reynolds.

The painting seems to be in some cases, the preferred artistic medium through which darevoce to a difficult life, sometimes marked by exclusion and loneliness.

We thank this perspective deaf people through whom we have known the true nature of COMMUNICAT one: that part from ' soul.

It is hoped that the book "The Color of Silence" is a new opportunity to raise awareness and cum-swapping between the world of the deaf and the hearing world.

and in connection with awareness-raising I would like to report some news of a project begun in 1992 with a group of hearing children in an elementary school in Rome.
The idea of \u200b\u200bthis project started by the children of that school, which after seeing deaf children playing in a park and mark each other, parents have expressed a desire to learn the "strange" language made by hand.

It 's so that fourteen hearing children followed for an hour a week course of lessons LIS taught by a deaf teacher from first to fifth grade.
During the course, the teacher has only used the gestural mode, with no voice support.

This experience reminds me that I personally have taken the course in high school I attended and I think it is useful at an early age, such as primary, when children have a greater capacity for learning.

LIS Children have learned through play, stories, dramatization of the actions of everyday life, the play. At the end of each school year have been staged in the theater performances in school signs on some stories, in front of an audience of parents and teachers.
