Viaggio nell'Universo

"Dipingo il fantastico viaggio nell'universo, sognando l'Amore e L'Eternitą" (Giuseppe Vale)

Paolo Levi - The colours of the soul

[Versione Italiana]

The poetic originality of Giuseppe Vale in visual experimentation regards, especially the magic of the transformations of the identifiable.   

Even in a brief observation of his persuasive compositions, what strikes is the phenomenon that forms and colours, luminous effects, are modified in a more or less vast measure compared with what we perceive in the ordinary experience of our visual perception.

Which experience? You feel like answering: an exclusively interior experience. _The volumetric forms of this man of colours are symbolically allusive and seem sometimes to shorten, other times to lenghten and this as a result of his high gestural ability.

These are analysed forms and when it is necessary - synthesized through continuous drafts, created with strokes and divided lines. Bodies of matter, characterised by a learned chromatic sensibility seem to navigate in the infinite space.

They have undulatory and snake-like movements that from a very close distance present quick brush-stokes transmitting a magic stage of a deceiving informal representation. This is the case of the lively composition "Profumo del colore" (Perfume of the colour), bright of tones.

Are these real flowers or lyrical - figurative allusivenesses. To tell the truth the palette of Giuseppe Vale when is inspired by mature in an expressionist key, through colours, tones, drafts, depths, tends to obey to the interior poetic demands of the painter.

It is a composition where the dream is treated like a vision, distant from any critical etiquette (formality). The colours are toned down, at the same time attenuated and shaded within the limits of a clever chromatic draft that draws and creates the forms.

Giuseppe Vale indirectly pays tribute to Monet's "Nimphs" in the precious composition "Nobiltą dei fiori" (Nobility of flowers).

This is a work that seem to indicate a transformation of the natural data, even if the delicate morphology of images, in the precise constituant structure, tends to give a message similar to the imagined model.

This is, infact, a work whose quality is independent from the resemblance of the object-nature that Giuseppe Vale wanted to describe.

What is really important is the ensemble of these shapeless forms, floral allusivenesses characterised by a tormenting expressive character, whose message assures existence to the composition making it as anew reality, interiorly necessary for the artist.

The intention and the constant transmutation of the vision essential for _Giuseppe Vale. In each work he faces and transforms form, fluttering, volumes, detail and the whole representation.

In "Scintillatione", he organises the space, the depths, the movement of bodies rich of atmospheric vitality, which make the view of the sky recognisible, passing from the definite to indefinite.

In this composition of a fauve palette Giuseppe Vale, in order to represent the utopia of depth appeals to a curious perspective typology, operating on chromatic contrast, on superimposition which give the sense of movement.
