Critics
Among the copious writing critical Giuseppe Cascella, we chose those of the following authors:
Jose Maria Teresa Prestigiacomo: writer and journalist, too, edited the texts of catalogs of exhibitions of art by famous masters historicized, Italians and foreigners (SAUCES, Nucci, Terruso, Togo, Botez, Polizzi, Modica, SASSU, HILL, Montalbano and many others, for the gallery "Sagittarius" of Messina and other art galleries and / or foundations such as the "Fondazione Mazzullo" Taormina, Palazzo Duchi Santo Stefano (ME) film critic, wrote screenplays for films. In 2003 began writing a film script which is about the emigration of the Sicilian Aeolian Islands, in the early '900, unfolding through a love story that is rooted in the memory of two young grandchildren of American immigrants.
It was not hard to find Giuseppe Cascella, the master of Salerno crib, because it is an open man, of great spirituality, and in no way addicted to the business, but all projected to communication on a topic that he feels from the inside as a vocation, that binds very strongly to the saint of today, Padre Pio. A man who has the fire of faith in himself and that prodigacon the simplicity of those who can build the canonical almost from nothing, that disperamai, who sees beauty everywhere. Is between the materials, all that nature provides illumination of inner meaning, of the Franciscan memory, not physical exaltation, as if each one had something to tell: the wisdom of the time, care and patience of the ' ora et labora ", the mobilization of all internal resources, the resonance of color in the compilation and magic with which envelop the viewer knows. Transmit messages in all sizes from miniature to colossal and it does inspire all who surrounds him and also with the caller that he speaks of crib. A life spent among the affection of friends with whom he works intent on demonstrating that you can do well with little because little is much if it makes messenger of the aspirations of the soul, which is the ease with which he can create an aura and atmosphere make a living, well beyond Christmas air that we breathe we usually once a year. Cascellaè for Christmas because he always invented and built all year round cribs perhaps impressing the soul and rhythms of the seasons than in December would not be present in their flow. Thus imparting a continuous renewal, a perpetual genesis of color and warmth that embraces humanity. A broader message of those who own idealized and captures the essence of communication. Find the divine and nature in the form imprescendibile because nature is proof that God exists. Construct multi-storey in height in a gioioca festival of lights that give light, shadows and dim light paths, waterfalls water as you hear the smooth sound that blends with the throbbing of your surroundings. Flowering of a creativity that surpasses the imagination to flow in a religious essence made of humility and tenderness. Grasps the freshness all impressed in a glance that makes you feel different and more genuine. Cascella is on the mark because, after all, his is a world of "mercy" which contribute to his friends who race to procure materials not disdain the presence of some signs technology, which incorporates them even as the work of human invention. Cascella's in the awareness of art that he cherishes, as saying goes, "priceless" or with a price that can not be defined. The price, indeed, is the satisfaction of being able to communicate their feelings bearers of an ancient world that he wants to continue to exist. Imagination and passion, spirit and flesh covering nell'immagineche and relive. Past and present in the flow of time in which the future is a pat on the past and a question on the present. A new world which he assumed in his nativity always prevail where the optimism and hope. A hope that we enthralling enthralls and binds you.

Y la Madre de que estaba en pasmo this trueque veia el llanto del hombre en Dios, y el hombre en la alegría, lo cual one of y del otro ser tan Ajeno Soliai.

Giuseppe Cascella between eclecticism and art primordial
Cascella, eclectic artist, blends elements of classic art, modern Indian paintings, landscapes Brazilian botanical illustrations. His paintings are inspired by the Bayeux Tapisserie, and among the soldiers of the battle are placed monkeys Chinese medieval glimpses of Japanese landscapes, paintings of Matisse and the like.
In making art Cascella is a whole attributable to several styles and in this lies its eclectic skyline. It 'also a primitive because for him everything is One, universal, due to a horizon cosmogonic, antiescatologico, pre-Socratic: Heraclitus.
We seek a balance that the culture of aestheticism has damaged or even ruined. And later, after having rebuked even very large figures of modern art such as Klee, Kandiskij, Arp, Brancusi, Picasso to have shed dogma stimulants but without contact history, Cascella, which offers various styles seems to be saying: Now it's time to launch this great bridge to the past, which means the future. To steal improvisation, the emphasis in literature and the whole production. These operate on the basis of the materials stored and compared (the Christ, the crib, man, animal, women) the idea, the essence: the reason of the figurative culture, it is to recover the evidence and organic continuity, almost organic, of human actions needed, and human and necessary means everything that has delivered the document root and ground of all peoples in time and into the structural variations and comparisons. Raise this system as a counterweight (or mirror) continuing down to the bottom which is precisely the motions of intuition, the evocation spontaneous shots of the personal revelations and dell'invadenza irrepressible literary easily soluble in the organ in delirium, in the holiday.
This speech will clarify the vision of Cascella art that represents the primordial man, without filters, genuine, almost naive. Joseph with his brushwork recounts the multifaceted animal that Palaeolithic man is an animal that he expresses, of course, saw, and apparently celebrated by mimicking, with the help of visual memory, but the act of expressing it, Man runs himself out of himself by taking the animal after it swallowed. The man inside the animal, if free will to sacrifice and give it back to life, killing him with the sign. Rather than say "the man saw the animal," for Paleolithic man must say "man has digested the animal." Delineation of figuration is digested. It remains finally to be noted that the Paleolithic man also expresses the animal that can hardly have seen, and some who, with certainty, has not seen.
So the fundamental thesis is that art is born from an act of digestion and detritus by a stream processing wishful, almost biologically, only interrupted in the act of creation that is primal and somewhat lethal, deadly, but also arise. This somewhat reminds us of the gesture in painting Cascella, changing the stroke, as it is changing its style. The formation process of primordial expression is a continuous flow, a durable process of simultaneous integration is constant taking possession of the world posed by pure imagination as captatio. The sign is shown, the figure is an act, the act is unity, communion, integration, generation, the unit is the divine, the divine figure, the figure is a sign. Well as action and symbol are the one and the same reality. Joseph runs himself out of himself by taking the artist, after having swallowed. He is un'artigiano he has within himself the artist; frees itself, to sacrifice and give it back to life, killing him with the sign. Rather than say "Cascella has seen the artist" to Cascella you must say "Cascella has digested the artist." Delineation of the poem is digested. It remains finally to be noted that Joseph also expresses the artist who can hardly have seen, and some who, with certainty, has never seen.
But this insight that makes me centra assimilate Palaeolithic man in the act of his artistic action with primordial Cascella? and the anti-Oedipus quoted at the beginning? This anti-Oedipus is an issue that made me think a lot. You can find a very strong close to Cascella with the anti-Oedipus described at the beginning, I think that in any case he has remained a residual nostalgia for the origin of the ego, the first I primeval magic of an ego-religious somehow makes me think that there is still no law in Joseph, the craftsman who knows how to make art.
In this magma is only one name, and it is his, the others are more or less fictitious, as supports. It is the mens general, the turbid total, the fever that slips inside, what he does when he paints the crib or create more beautiful in the world.
Thus was born the first idea of meaning, and certainly one of the strongest acts, a fit ... or here is a work that could only be made today, here's an action that could be accomplished today only. But I think you should write or paint, in pectore, in hours, aenigmate, in symbol, in speculation, in vacuo, the only road towards the opening, the only instruments to probe the primordial Cascella when he paints is not otherwise Paleolithic man from her with the animals painted on the walls of the cave that I mentioned more about: just replace the names of the Paleolithic man Joseph and the animals with the paintings, and the same sentence as before, replacing figuration with poetry.
Cascella with his works colorful, beautiful, varied remains an eclectic, interested in all art forms, but this is not bad, but the extreme ability to direct its multi-faceted intelligence towards new forms, styles, colors and cultures. The subjects depicted, designed in a delicate and unusual harmony, have clearly shown, his interest in the realistic naturalism of his land. In search of a language that would meet the "needs of its authenticity 'and poetry", Cascella, it is "looking out into the world of painting a self-taught, in his paintings, done mostly on paper, brings to life - remains firmly anchored to a representation simple and spontaneous, more lyrical and formal accents. What is striking especially the works of Joseph, is its simplicity, which often becomes' the medium of preference for a vision in which the dominant color has a distinctive effect. " But what matters most in all his work is precisely her ability, not sought after but almost natural, portraying the subjects he prefers, and in view of synthesis and at times permeated by an aura reminiscent of the Impressionists, "a mirror of his soul. " Poetic dusty corners, one of many interior with shelves crammed with books and magazines, stacked in a disorderly way, between pitchers and chipped pottery, paintings, vases with delicate dried flowers.
The tone is intimate, you will discover a dynamic and harmonious relationship between things and things, absent any natural light, as if the artist wanted to show that being inside in a protected place, you think, paint, live better .
Moods, wonders, dropout, ironies. The palette darkens in misty tones, browns and blacks agreements scrambled, with stylistic references to '600 Frans Hals, white opaque, gray-silver sign's relationship with the environment, choices or things that you choose, the taste for antiquities, for the objects of dealers, faded fabrics, armchairs lame.
Images that exude magic and conjuring, the experience of their history, roots in which the man takes refuge from the world and defends. His study, his den is transformed into a sort of warm womb where objects are "experienced" speak a language of the family colored. Appears as an impulse "genetic", a fold of the interior that turns with fullness to the territories of the painting. The way to Cascella lingers into things with total frenzy of painting as if it were a matter expressive language Special learned to give free rein to 'imagination.
Character and ruthlessness of the gestures that by exercising with the brush, relentlessly perpetuated for many years in this artist full of a "furor" magnetic and dazzling. Glimpses of memory that have visions of nostalgia Montana, where the inhabitants of this life are accomplished through nature and the time seems to stand still.
Canonical gestures of painting that sums producing images robust flavor, showing the value of art and will still permeated with the aura that comes from the beginning. Reports of lush landscapes, full of pure intentions clearly chromatic, stamps hard left in their lives without any compromise.
Colors that seem to have fled from some psychological prison and wandering in their drive, which seem to explode into a horde of rhythm and happiness.
A heart that echoes behind the scenes of this picture visceral, heartfelt celebration of this, of this system that works differently on visual nostalgia of alpine areas, it condenses into symbols intended as permanent dialogue between Man and Nature.
Passion for the "classic" that is expressed in "naturalism vortex, magma of life that emerges between the drafts streaked signs convoluted, interwoven lines and brilliant stratagems to reach the depths of the soul.
Here it is, the last work that marks the traditional path, yet full of meanings and feelings of Joseph Cascella. And we're in an imaginary landscape where no human presence is not indicated, where things are still happening for the will of a deep energy which is what makes the world go round.
Suggestions fresh clear matrix naive, romantic dreams and reminiscences dell'afflato also crossed the mind of Vincent Van Gogh, Antonio Ligabue, enthusiasm and willingness to be trying to turn away from the emptiness of existence, leaving the land of black to hang out Hanging above the terraces of the art of color, the one that was pursued as a "stain" from all the great writers of the past.
Cascella, regardless of the laws and agreements that often creep dangerous in the world of delicate communication, once again it is addressed, or rather, it is called as a "prophet" by his real passion: Painting. "
