Biography
Pasquale Di Fazio was born in Lavello (1960), Italy, but spent part of his life in Milan. He is a self-taught artist and from 1985 he devoted himself entirely to painting, exhibiting his work for the first time in Milan in 1990. From that moment on he presented his works in Europe, the United States and Asia.
Di Fazio currently lives and works in Tuscany and focuses on abstract art. His deep knowledge of composition and depth allows his paintings to take on a spatial dimension, with his fabulous and surprising colors that provide extraordinary lighting and a mystical background.
Di Fazio translates his love for nature on the canvas, evoking the atmosphere of the Italian countryside, and Tuscany in particular, in his inimitable way. His abstract style and subtle use of color effortlessly convey the authentic feel of the landscapes and bring out the natural nuances of the country.
Di Fazio's paintings are intriguing and fascinating for their composition and the harmony of colors, partly the result of the artist's advanced technical skills. The colors blend subtly into a brilliant alchemy that reflects a great expressive force.
Without any reference to realism, Di Fazio shows a universe full of surprises with the desire to promote emotions.In this very original abstract world, the subtlety of the harmonies is punctuated by geometric figures. The strokes of the brush strokes touch each other, they fit together. It is an impulse of dynamism to these rhythmic compositions that resonate like a musical score. As a teacher, the painter plays with the vibrations of chromatic notes to construct spaces of freedom inhabited by spiritual powers. Di Fazio's works reveal a unique atmosphere that brings together both color and form to propose new pictorial sensations.
