"I was born in a small town in the province of Buenos Aires. But, in reality,
I have chosen the world as a place to live
", points out this artist who keeps very good memories of Madrid.
Especially from the El Retiro park, where he 'suffered' to win the interest of the public present there.
"I came to Madrid to work on the street with my numbers for coins. At that time, when I was in my twenties, there were not many magicians in El Retiro, so being able to return to this city today with my own show seems incredible to me. Yes I have time, I will go there several times to remember that time.
Life is a journey and walking through El Retiro is very important to me."
WITH THE SAUDI ROYAL FAMILY
Among his great challenges Di Giacomo points out having worked for the royal family of Saudi Arabia for 15 years.
His goal: to get them and especially Prince Abdulaziz bin Fahd to enjoy his magic.
"Every day I put on a different show.
Almost 300 15-minute shows a year, with two or three new acts every day.
A very important challenge that also led me to travel all over the world."
Now, with
The Journey
, this artist hopes to leave the public speechless with a show "that
recovers the classic magic of the 20s
, with a greater impact on what is told than on what is done", as he likes to describe.
This production, which includes music by the director, dancers and actors
, is a bet that Di Giacomo has been preparing with great care for some time.
"The important thing is that you don't think about how I did the trick, but that you let yourself be carried away by the story,"
explains the Argentine.
"I want to take the audience on a journey where magic is the common thread and where it doesn't matter if you are far or near the stage. I like to create something visual that is seen from different points at the same time as others. It is better seen with big screens than we will install".
'STEALING' AT THE PRADO MUSEUM
Between his dreams, this artist does not bite his tongue.
"I really like art.
My dream would be to make
Las Meninas
by Velázquez disappear.
The idea seems fantastic to me, what happens is that later they would come looking for me... Imagine making it disappear!"
Although, above all, his art seeks to excite.
"I try to get as deep as possible.
In addition to entertaining, seeking the attention of those who see you.
Sometimes I have had to act for celebrities or for a Bedouin in the middle of the desert, as has happened to me on occasion, and it is something magical ", points out with a smile someone who seeks
to conquer young and old
with
The Journey
while preparing new shows at the Ibiza Magic Club.
