He proposed a theory about four-dimensional perception, which states the concepts behind the renaissance perspective involving four dimensions instead of three dimensions assigned to it.[3] These studies culminated in the development of the method of the four-dimensional perspective.[4]

Mandarino wrote the Versatilist manifesto (2007).[5][6]

Versatilism

Versatilism is an artistic movement proposed in 2007, from a literary manifesto,[5] with the intention of freeing people from the expert analysis and promoting the practice of art as a form of self-knowledge and spiritual enhancement.

"New ideas are hard to identify, hard to assimilate, and only detachment may be able to evaluate them in a more open way. When a man assumes the role of giving the verdict about what artists are doing, or the society gives him this role, we are one step closer to repeat the greatest injustices that men of science, philosophy, arts and religion have suffered throughout history." – Interview about the Versatilist Manifesto[7]

Four-dimensional perspective

After spending four years writing the Theory of four-dimensional perception (1995), Mandarino developed a new method, in a subject for many years stagnant. In the perspective of four dimensions, the observer is not a static element (fixed point), as one sees in traditional processes.[9]

In Observation in time (1997) can be found nine different vanishing points and horizon lines, representing different moments of an observer who turns his head and moves vertically and horizontally.[10]

This kind of painting admits curved or spherical canvas.[10]
