ÒThe language of lightÓ was written by Antonio
Petrillo, who dedicated the last years of his
short life to its drafting. Antonio was a
friend of mine and a teacher and I applied his
teachings about light and lighting of artworks
during many years of my career.
I had long promised to dear Luisa, AntonioÕs
wife, to publish his unreleased work but I
never found the time and serenity to handle it
due my work and teaching.
I do it now, taking advantage also of the skill
and availability of Roberta Todisco, who
oversaw the research of images and the bookÕs
graphics.
ItÕs left to me to try to recreate the writing
style of his work, given that it would be
impossible to re-propose
an updated version without AntonioÕs advices,
suggestions and affection that He always has
given to me undeservedly.
