THEY HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT HIM

 

“The artist presents recent works that testify to the presence of a graceful research to which he passes from paintings more aimed towards a material with an almost lyrical flavor within which the sign (we would say) secret to others - and they are the last - with an aggressive flavor. Here the matter takes on a greater and decisive violence while the sign (which has become authoritative) ends up coming out of the surfaces, invading the third dimension and solidifying thanks to the use of wire or other.

And it is precisely these last works that we liked the most as we have identified in them a greater compositional freedom combined with an expanding (we would say) unstoppable force. "

Roberto Vitali, art critic, “Mongolfiera”, 9/89

 

“Mario Pascariello's painting finds its roots in the climate of the 50-60s. Think of Scanavino and the informal and expressionist painting of that period. I seem to see in the last paintings a delusional will aimed at defeating the form. A rough painting, made up of broad gestures, but full of moods; abrupt, but at times courteous and delicate. "

Giovanni D'Agostino, painter and teacher of the Academy of Fine Arts of Bologna, on the occasion of the Collective "Presenze Giovani dell'Arte" in 1990 at the Bertold Brecht Cultural Circle in Milan in via Padova, 61

 

"His oil paintings are full of evocative magnetism, his watercolors suggest the observer's gaze, projecting it towards further worlds."
