As a continuation of the Canopiocchi su ceramica project involving vernacular subjects and characters, my kind followers can pre-order ceramic tiles (15×10 cm) of the drawings shown below by sending me the corresponding reference numbers. The price of the each tile is 25 € (shipment fee not included); the buyer will receive both the ceramic and the original drawing.
I propose to freely choose a series of four at least in order to maintain the idea of a sequence of characters.
I just completed (June 18) all the 104 sketches, following the venerable examples of Giandomenico Tiepolo and Mimmo Paladino.

Please see the links to the Giorgio Agamben little book on Pulcinella (2016), to the recent show of Mimmo Paladino drawings (Naples 2023-2024) and to the Giandomenico Tiepolo series Divertimenti per li regazzi (also, the Italian Wikipedia article on this popular figure from the Neapolitan Guarattelle glove-puppets theatre).
