I just got your mail telling me that Roberto passed awy. This makes me break my self-chosen temporal silence. I don't know what to say as it leaves me completely perplexed. We have never met, but I "knew" him since I bought "Mannas Manna" long ago here in Antwerp. The book showed me his artworks, but also an extrovert, self-assured man who wanted to make it in life and live it to the fullest. He will be missed by every painter who works in the Fantastic branch, and this in the broadest sense of the word, but mostly he will be missed by Martina. This resonates through the entire tribe. What had a beginning will one day end, what has a past will one day be fully past; only this moment is eternal.

Yes, he was an amazing person. Unlike anyone I had ever met before. This has been a tremendous loss for the world of Art.
