The study of form merges with that of the pose, always in balance. By shaping the raw material, clay, the artist gives life to a body and a pose crystallized in time. Yet, the female body radiates freedom. The artistic and multifaceted talent of Paolo Desario shines forcefully from his works, releasing a vital energy almost tangible. His inspiration stems from an inner quest with ancient and primordial echoes as suggested by the sinuous female torsos and the winged figures. He manages to unite reality and transcendence through ever-new insights, forging an original synthesis between the individual predilection for the essential simplicity of forms and the most careful contemporary plastic research. Sculptor and painter, Paolo Desario was born in Barletta, in Apulia, and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts of Bari in the sculpture school of Amerigo Tot. He lives and works in Barletta, has taught Plastic Disciplines at the State Artistic High School “Sacro Cuore” of Cerignola and at the Artistic High School of Corato. He boasts an artistic career begun nearly 50 years ago, dedicating himself to sculpture and painting, participating in numerous solo and collective exhibitions national and international.
