"Volcanic ashes" Painting

Athanasio Celia is a painter, author and art expert. He is the founder of the "Verticalismus" art theory. Now will follow excerpts of the manifesto which was signed by supporters of that particular art-theory. This manifesto-proclamation inaugurated a "Verticalismus - Art Exhibition" which was held in a German art museum. Thus,"Verticalismus", as an expression of contemporary art, clarifies that "when we mention the cathetus" (the vertical), we don't necessarily mean any straight line that starts from a 90 degree angle; but the line that follows the thread of the plumb bob (or, plummet). Otherwise, the horizontal line would also be called "cathetus" because it is vertical to the vertical. But cathetus is only that line which connects straight and dynamically two centres of gravity. It uses the force of gravity to be always vertical, though the earth rotates on its axis. Just as the rain that although it drips seemingly always vertical and is falling down towards us, seen from a fixed point outside the Earth - depending on the time -, falls laterally or even in the opposite direction from the down to the up on the soil surface of the earth. Since a point is not dimensionally, the first true dimension is certainly the line. The second dimension is the plane (which is created by two intersecting lines); the third is the volume (which schematically is formed by three lines). And the fourth, to us known dimension, is time. So that the other dimensions exist, the first is prerequisite. But for the existence of the first dimension, there are no prerequisites. That is why the first dimension - the line - is so close attached to "nil" (to "the nothing") like nothing else. Our line is vertical because it identifies itself with the gravity. Knowing that the three-dimensional space includes, length, width, height, we will fix now our attention on the term that we define as height. This is because the height indicates the direction of the gravitational force, as well as the opposite centrifugal force; and when these two forces balance themselves, easily produce the idea of the "Euclidean curvature"; but also furthermore they contribute to the better theoretical understanding of the "relativistic curvature of time and space." The first "pencil line of the Creator" must have been a vertical, or "upright" in the etymological sense of "right". From a moment time began to thump like a cardiogram, with our "vertical" sketching up and down "on white paper.
