It is with profound sadness that we announce that the master Guido Dettoni della Grazia passed away during the night.

His passing represents a great loss for all who had the privilege of knowing him, working by his side, and sharing in his creative universe. Throughout his career, Guido Dettoni della Grazia distinguished himself not only through his talent and artistic vision, but also through his extraordinary humanity, his generosity, and his remarkable ability to inspire everyone around him.

His thought, his work, and the mark he has left on so many projects and in so many people will continue to live on in the legacy he entrusts to us.

 

We wish to share this news with all the friends, followers of his work, and collaborators who over the years have been part of his professional and human journey.

 

In the coming days, we will share information about any gatherings or spaces of remembrance that may be organized to honor his memory.

 

The funeral service will take place on Sunday, March 8, at 1:00 PM at the Sant Gervasi Funeral Home in Barcelona (Spain).

TANKAS

* Poem of Japanese origin consisting of five lines, the first and third pentasyllables, and the rest heptasyllabic.

Quina paraula
em trasbalsa l’ésser!
Em sent confosa
per l’oreig que aleteja
en l’alcova secreta!

 Corba com l’àmfora,
aboques aigua trèmula.
És font de Vida
que esponja la pregària
d’un anhel que no cessa .

 Turgent el ventre
de llavor del nou Home,
claror que és l’Alfa
o infinit que es limita
i esdevindrà l’Omega .

Veu que bressola
plor o somnis, manyaga,
tan prop del cor!
S’hi repenja l’Infant
fent-ne un costós silenci

No sents el cant
del colom que s’acosta?
Et porta un regust
d’eternitat que guaita
en coda gest quan toques

Els ulls se’m clouen
i sorgeix l’esperança
de viure sempre
en la mà que em conté,
en l’ull que em contempla
