Screen Life is a book produced on the occasion of Flavio de Marco's anthological exhibition of the same name at the Villa delle Rose space. The book contains 81 images representing twenty-six years of the artist's research, divided into nine chapters. From the first representations of computer screens in 1999, which explored the screen space as a new contemporary landscape, we arrive at recent portraits of avatars and virtual influencers. The book, produced by the Maramotti Collection and published by Quodlibet, includes texts by Sandro Sproccati, Franco “Bifo” Berardi, Aldo Nove, Maria Luisa Pacelli, Luca Bertolo, Mauro Covacich, Giorgio Falco, Nicola Samorì, Federico Ferrari, and an introduction by Lorenzo Balbi.

PIN (Pittura Italiana del Novecento/Italian Painting of the Twentieth Century) describes the pictorial research of the last century through a sequence of 100 paintings, one for each year from 1900 to 1999, each with an accompanying text. This is not a history book, but a highly personal selection relating to the career of artist Flavio de Marco, with the idea of reinterpreting the last century in light of current developments in an increasingly projective and dematerialized society. The volume was conceived as a dialectical reality in which the physical dimension, i.e., the texts of the book printed on paper, and the digital dimension, the images of the book visible online through a QR code, interact to create a multi-level reading experience.
