About the Item
TECHNIQUE PHOTO-PAINTING
The technique used was defined as PHOTO-PAINTING by the art critic Silvia Pegoraro of Ravenna Italy and was my invention in 1994. In fact, since 1964 I had been working with photography and painting which had never been united.
In 1994 I returned to Naples, the city where I was born and had been missing for 10 years after moving to Rome in 1984. I returned to see the MIRACLE achieved by the G7 with the Presidents of the most powerful countries led by Bill Clinton, US President. It was a wonderful visit to my city reborn in its ancient splendor! I took over 5,000 photos of the squares and monuments of Naples with my Nikon. I returned to Rome and had all the photos printed and put them on various tables and assembled all the various pieces. I immediately realized that parts were missing which I completed with paint. A spontaneous gesture with which I had unconsciously achieved a great innovation: I had combined the REALITY of photography with the DREAM represented by painting. Silvia, my muse who knew me well, when I showed her the first work IMPERATING MALE (R:0176) that I had done she said to me: "Dario you have united the TWO WORLDS of your life: that of your childhood with the sensitivity of the dreamer with the concrete one that they gave you taught your parents with education, studies (degree in Economic Sciences) and work started at 15 years old in your family's copper industry. These formative years had distanced myself from those of childhood when I studied the piano and dreamed of becoming an orchestra conductor. I also drew and painted with my imagination in search of the affections I was missing. In fact my parents were busy in the factory (copper production) rebuilding Italy destroyed by the recently ended war. I then refined PHOTO - PAINTING which developed into DIGITAL PROCESSING having replaced the BRUSH with the MOUSE to fill the gaps left by the photography and complete the REALITY which with painting became another FANTASTIC reality.
SOCIAL RESEARCH
This work is part of the SOCIAL "research" which addresses issues that concern people and the "polis" which in Latin means city but also "political model" .
BULGARI DOES NOT PRODUCE MILK
In the photo there is a black woman who would like to breastfeed a white baby (obviously not hers) . This generous gesture cannot be realized because her breasts are dried up due to her malnourished conditions due to the poverty in which she lives. This image of thinness makes us think of the opulent world of the rich that I represented with a precious necklace around the woman's neck. The addition of the title completes the message which is very simple. Reduce earnings by allocating part of them to rebalancing the world! It seems like an altruistic gesture, but it isn't because if those around us are better off, we will all be better off and the quality of life will improve. Feeling better means having more education, not suffering from hunger, having a job... all conditions that reduce anger in those who suffer severe hardships. Doing good involves receiving good and often with interest.
