About the Item

TECHNIQUE PHOTO-PAINTING- DIGITAL PROCESSING 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, also the one made with MOUSE, became another FANTASTIC reality. TECNICA FOTO-PITTURA – ELABORAZIONE DIGITALE La tecnica usata è stata definita FOTO-PITTURA dal critico d'arte Silvia Pegoraro di Ravenna Italia e fu una mia invenzione del 1994. Infatti dal 1964 lavoravo con la fotografia e la pittura che non si erano mai unite. Nel 1994 tornai a Napoli, la città dove ero nato e mancavo da 10 anni dopo il trasferimento a Roma nel 1984. Tornai per vedere il MIRACOLO realizzato dal G7 con i Presidenti dei Paesi più potenti con a capo Bill Clinton presidente USA. Fu una visita stupenda nella mia città rinata nel suo antico splendore! Scattai con la mia Nikon oltre 5.000 foto delle piazze e monumenti di Napoli. Tornai a Roma e feci stampare tutte le foto e le misi su vari tavoli e montai tutti i vari pezzi. Mi resi subito conto che mancavano delle parti che completai con la pittura. Un gesto spontaneo col quale avevo realizzato inconsciamente una grande innovazione: avevo unito la REALTA’ della fotografia con il SOGNO rappresentato dalla pittura. Silvia, mia musa che mi conosceva bene, quando le feci vedere il primo lavoro MASCHIO IMPERANTE (R:0176) che avevo fatto mi disse: “ Dario hai unito i DUE MONDI della tua vita: quello della tua fanciullezza con la sensibilità del sognatore con quello concreto che ti hanno insegnato i tuoi genitori con l'educazione, gli studi (laurea in Scienze Economiche) e il lavoro iniziato a 15 anni nella industria di rame della tua famiglia. Questi anni di formazione avevano allontanato quelli dell'infanzia quando studiavo il pianoforte e sognavo di diventare direttore d'orchestra. Inoltre disegnavo e dipingevo con la mia fantasia alla ricerca degli affetti che mi mancavano. Infatti i miei genitori impegnati in fabbrica a ricostruire l’Italia distrutte dalla guerra da poco terminata. Ho poi affinato la FOTO-PITTURA che si è sviluppata nella ELABORAZIONE DIGITALE avendo sostituito il PENNELLO con il MOUSE per riempire i vuoti lasciati dalla fotografia e completare la REALTA' che con la pittura, anche quella realizzata col MOUSE, diventava un'altra realtà FANTASTICA.
