About the Item
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.
PLACES OF MEMORY Cities
This work is part of the "research" PLACES OF MEMORY Cities revisited by me in a fantastic way. In fact I use my exclusive PHOTOPAINTING technique with a photographic element to which I add painting (oil or acrylic) to create a NEW REALITY.
VENICE THAT IS GOING AWAY 2
After NAPLES THAT SE GOES, this painting of Venice was born, a fascinating city in the water that I love! But unlike the one in Naples where the Castellovo detaches itself (ideally) from the mainland, here it is one of those gigantic cruise ships that takes away a piece of the lagoon inside its bow! Yes, with all the sea, a small island and also the famous Cà Dario palace which bears my name! Unfortunately these ships slip like "monsters" into the canals of the fragile lagoon city which needs "limited number" tourism. I imagine the happy tourist who manages to get the pass for him and his wife to visit Venice after 5 years... he would live happily in this wait! As the great Italian poet of the 19th century Giacomo Leopardi taught us with his poem IL SABATO DEL VILLAGGIO... where he explains to the child that waiting for the party is the true moment of Happiness!!! Just the opposite of today's consumerist society that burns everything immediately!
