Pea soup on Van Gogh's The Sower
Palazzo Bonaparte, Rome – November 4, 2022
Capitalism
Pea soup projected with abrupt force onto Van Gogh's The Sower oil on canvas. The substance strikes the central figure from below, rising diagonally through the composition and dispersing across the upper field—cutting through sky, grain, and gesture. Applied by two members of Ultima Generazione, the act merges alimentary matter with painterly tradition, contaminating pastoral rhythm with the comestible product. Broadcast widely across RAI, La Repubblica, and Il Messaggero.
