This results in a verbal and visual short-circuit which gives birth to a discussion on social matters, addressing to the public which have eyes to see and ears to hear. This way the polemic written in verse by Pasolini establishes a dialogue with the universe of visual representation which he strongly favours, for his studies and works. This allows him to create an ethical space for observation, a space for collective contemplation which develops knowledge and a new awareness of civil reality. In our time, in such a difficult moment for our life where politics has been deprived of its real meaning by economy and finance, the communion of Pasolini's poetry with the artist’s iconographic works can represent hope and the sign of a better future" (Achille Bonito Oliva in the catalogue of exhibition entitled PPP. Una polemica inversa, Omaggio a Pier Paolo Pasolini, Roma, 2012)
"Gulino works on Pasolini even when Pasolini apparently doesn't come into play, because Pasolini's thought permeates all of his work, with attention to the least, the derelict, the marginalized, who are for both a revealing observation point of all humanity. Of its fragility, its weaknesses, its loneliness, its contradictions, its fears. All like Christ, all in search of a Father who does not abandon on the Cross. Gulino, too, an eclectic artist—painter, poet, filmmaker—also Gulino, too, a forerunner, also Gulino, a heretic in the art world. Refractory to vernissages, to fashions, to the laws of the market, to intellectualistic whining, he who has the gift and the condemnation of art as an absolute necessity, is driven by the energy that makes him paint feverishly, day and night, in his home-studio in Sciacca where hundreds of works painted on canvases, panels, old doors, windows, cardboard, posters are piled up. advertising, in an overflowing expressive need..."
