"Tearing up a daily newspaper is the only way to free oneself, at a stroke, from thieves, murderers, swindlers, apostles and catastrophes"… This quotation from the poet Guido Ceronetti fits Zakamoto's works perfectly: he manages to transform dramatic headlines, generally set in huge type, into visions full of humour, capable of drawing a smile from us and at times a real laugh.
Introduction by F-Xavier Bernard,to the catalogue of exposition MEDIAMENTE FALSO by M.Zakamoto.

The text of the vintage newspaper

English translation

CORRIERE DELLA SERA — Year 68, No. 155. Morning Edition. Italy, Empire and Colonies, 30 cents. The fighters of the merchant navy. The port of Pantelleria effectively bombed. Nineteen Anglo-American aircraft shot down by fighters and anti-aircraft fire. German submarine storming a convoy. Large cruiser sent to the bottom in the Mediterranean. Among the gold medals awarded in memoriam by His Majesty the King Emperor last 10 June, two were given to long-haul captains, officers of our merchant navy, one lost and one living. The deeds of shining heroism recounted in the medal citations occurred with valiant protagonists, yet they were only the high points of an unbroken display of devotion to the Homeland unto the supreme sacrifice.
