1974 original propaganda poster Cosmonautics Day, celebrated on April 12 - USSR
Located in PARIS, FR
The 1974 original propaganda poster titled "12 Avril journée de la cosmonautique CCCP Yuri Gagarin" is a compelling artifact from the Soviet era, celebrating Cosmonautics Day and the achievements of Yuri Gagarin. This poster is a vivid example of how the Soviet Union used art and propaganda to promote its space program and the broader ideals of socialism and communism.
Cosmonautics Day, celebrated on April 12, marks the anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's historic flight in 1961 when he became the first human to journey into outer space. This day holds significant importance in Russian and Soviet history, symbolizing the technological prowess and exploratory spirit of the Soviet Union during the Cold War.
The poster features Yuri Gagarin, the pioneering cosmonaut whose name became synonymous with Soviet space achievements. Gagarin's smiling face and heroic pose embody the triumph of the Soviet space program and its role in the space race against the United States. His image is a powerful symbol of Soviet ingenuity, courage, and the potential of socialism to achieve great feats.
The text on the poster, "Socialisme et communisme c'est le port spatiale fiable d'ou l'humanité prend d'assaut et dirigera les étendues de l'univers" ("Socialism and communism is the reliable spaceport from which humanity launches and will conquer the expanses of the universe"), reinforces the ideological message that the successes of the Soviet space program were a direct result of its socialist and communist principles. This statement reflects the deep interconnection between Soviet ideology and its scientific and technological advancements.
The artistic style of the poster is typical of Soviet propaganda art...

HEAVENLY ROME - Roma Celeste - Paint by Dario Cusani - 1995
Located in Roma, IT
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.
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.
HEAVENLY ROME
This is the first painting made of Rome with the PHOTOPAINTING technique 10 years after my move to Caput Mundi! Notice (on the right) two glimpses: The first desecrator is the façade of Montecitorio, seat of the Italian parliament, which is collapsing... and from the date of the painting 1995...

"Shamrock Conoco, TX, Route 66 Series, " Color Photograph by Thomas Ferderbar
Located in Milwaukee, WI
"Shamrock Conoco, TX" is an original color photograph by Thomas Ferderbar. The artist signed the piece lower right. It depicts the entrance to a building in Texas off of Route 66. This photograph is part of the artist's "Route 66" series.
Artwork Size: 18 3/4" x 15"
Frame Size: 25" x 21"
Artist Bio:
I wanted to become a photographer at the age of 12, when my sister Grace gave me a Kodak Box Brownie camera for Christmas. (I still have that camera.) Since our family was quite poor, I built my first enlarger with an oatmeal box, while that same box camera was used as its lens.
In 1947, just after graduation from high school, I had the opportunity to travel to California by car and house trailer with my uncle, aunt and mother, and in the process to shoot my first pictures along Route 66. Then, after graduation from college, a stint in the army followed by photography school, I opened an advertising photography studio in 1954. For over four decades my staff and I earned numerous local, regional and national awards for our achievements in photography, including several "best of show" honors.
In 1958 I studied with renowned landscape photographer Ansel Adams at his Yosemite National Park workshop. In 1980, while still operating my advertising photography studio, I began a serious photographic study of the decaying artifacts along our country's former Mother Road, Route 66.
The former national highway route from Chicago, Illinois to Santa Monica, California was not a popular subject at the time, and so I filed away my transparencies, not knowing what I might ever do with them. However, as time passed Route 66 did become a topic of national interest, and upon my retirement in 1997, I once again returned to record the Mother Road's artifacts.
A number of my Yosemite series photographs are included in the Ansel and Virginia Adams collection at the Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona at Tucson, and several of my Route 66 photographs and other subjects have been acquired by the Milwaukee Art Museum. At this time I am preparing a book of my photographic experiences along Route 66, from 1947 to the present. --Tom Ferderbar
