Author capable of creating an updated version of Surrealism with what he defined as the aesthetics of Shimmering Changing Mythology, Giancarlo Maiocchi, better known as Occhiomagico, uses the nude body as an element possessing the formal clarity of absolute geometry. These images, resulting from skillful collage composition, were used between 1981 and 1982 as covers for the monthly magazine of architecture, design and art "Domus".
