A goblin in the garden. Fanciful portraits by Dario Fusaro is the title of the event to be held in Montepulciano (SI) from 20 September to 30 October in the splendid exhibition spaces of Palazzo Avignonesi in the Historic Center of Montepulciano realized with the support of the Municipality of Montepulciano, iGuzzini, Assicurazioni Generali, Consorzio del Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and Grandi Giardini Italiani.
Photographer of gardens, interpreter of nature through his lens, his vision that has something special, a sensibility or poetic fantasy or reality, I don't know how to define that in the terms of portrait each shot that fixes an image of an angle of whatever garden revealing a reality in a fairytale
shape, of a superior energy, of beauty. Portrait because those shots reveal that which hides the most intimate part of a flower, a plant, an angle of green, and you seem to be there in that image, to smell the perfume, hear the rustling of the wind and everything that takes you into a dreamlike
state you and those flowers, that plant, that corner of green you are one image of nature made of flora and fauna, the animal man among the animals. To enjoy that peace, the serenity that his state has taken away from him, and that there, in nature it is necessary to search for his origins and Dario through his watchful eye, stops in an instant all this, so that we can enjoy every moment, in every place, through one of his photographs.
The photographic camera, a modern instrument that in the hand of an artist who deeply knows the technique, it becomes a means of expression equal to the brush of a painter or a chisel of a sculptor, technique, fantasy, sense of beauty, equilibrium, harmony a source of expression of feeling through the image in front of which the observer feels emotion and that thrill of amazement that only a work of art can transmit. An image by whatever technique it is reproduced becomes art when it is able to transmit all this and the photographs of Dario cannot be denied, they transmit it.
The palate of colours, in every one of his imagines is endless, from the most diverse greens to the most tender such as a bud to the darker in the silhouette of an ancient cypress, they mix without getting confused, maintaining their own well defined identity that underlines the volume, the three dimensional images. Timid pastel colours or fragments of bright colours underline the strength and the chromatic immensity of the blooms creating flashes of light or faint romantic mottling as when he portrays roses or peonies. Scattered statues or artefacts in the vegetation reveal the
presence of the hand of man and they reveal themselves like fantastic sets or sleeping characters in an indefinite time.
