Example of contemporary patronage

Giuseppe Giordano, known as Pino, is an entrepreneur of Salerno origin who has lived and worked in Veneto for over 50 years, in particular in Treviso, where he founded his two restaurants with which he aimed to give a new vision of the taste for pizza and for the other southern dishes. The laurels he received over the years did not distract him from his passion and so Pino continued to open his restaurants/pizzerias throughout the region. In 1990 Giuseppe Giordano became friends with Rinalda Truffi, curator and popularizer of the work of the artist Mario Eremita.

From the relationship of mutual esteem and admiration and from the profound vocation of patronage that complements Pino’s culinary one, the idea of embellishing the premises with the works of the great artist Mario Eremita was conceived. The art virtuoso then met the cooking virtuoso and the understanding was long-lasting and solid.

In 1990 Mario Eremita placed his sculptures and paintings in the premises of Treviso, in Piazza dei Signori and in Viale della Repubblica. So in 2015 he took care of the entire hall of the venue in Piazza Candiani in Mestre, in 2017 he artistically embellished the venue in Via dei Ponti Romani in Padua, in 2020 he expanded the 1990 intervention in Viale della Repubblica in Treviso. Overall, it is an artistic embellishment intervention of cyclopean dimensions which has given a noteworthy cultural impact to the already high quality of Giuseppe Giordano’s work. The entrepreneur has demonstrated a visionary ability that goes far beyond common sensitivity and in particular revolutionizes the stereotyped vision of the restaurant/pizzeria; he brought the small provincial cities of the Veneto closer to the large international metropolises where everything is possible.

In the heart of Padova, in Ponti Romani’s street Giuseppe Giordano has established a new restaurant “Da Pino”, inaugurated in the spring of 2017.

    artist studio by mario eremita

    The artist’s Mario Eremita Studio

    historical headquarters of the art studio in Paderno di Ponzano Veneto (Treviso)

    The artist Mario Eremita acquired his own art studio in 1991 in the town of Paderno di Ponzano Veneto in the province of Treviso. The property, consisting of two sections, a medieval watchtower, whose foundations date back approximately to the 13th century and an annex dating back to the 16th century, is in a state of serious deterioration.

    original structure

    After taking care of the renovation project, supported by his sons Nicola and Michelangelo, he decided to enrich it with multiple art inserts. The entrance, consisting of a large arch with a wrought iron gate, introduces an “opus incertum” mosaic, made with different types of granite, inspired by the theme of the sea, which represents three dolphins and two gigantic octopuses. The work extends over twenty-five square meters and is evocative and monumental. The perimeter walls instead accommodate: a work in stucco bas-relief, which represents girls playing various musical instruments and children playing, entitled “Harmony”; a wall painting entitled “The Seasons”, a girl carrying in her womb the fruits and flowers of the Seasons of the year.

    What is special about this Artist’s Studio are the stairs. They have become a support for bas-reliefs and paintings: everywhere, along the climb, you come across figures dancing or making music.

    The ceiling of the Painting Studio is entirely made in bas-relief and represents girls dancing in the sky.

    The room at the top of the tower is the last room of the Artist’s Studio. Here, along the walls, paintings are made with a particular technique that gives an effect of plasticity and freshness. Inserted in three arch-shaped niches, three women dance naked.

    In 2001 the Studio was sold to the artist photographer Andrea Pancino. He, passionate about Eremita’s works, redesigned all the rooms according to his own very refined aesthetic tastes, preserving and further enhancing the art of the previous owner. A few small moves and a calibrated intervention to remodel the spaces gave birth to an environment that elevates the quality of life, stimulating reflection, contemplation and the desire to always surround oneself with beautiful things. This architectural structure which, due to its antiquity and the different uses it has had over time, has taken on strong characteristics of suggestion and mystery, became an Artist’s Studio, receiving a unique expressive intensity, then passing through a new declination with the intervention of another artist, younger and with a different sensitivity, is a monument to the art that remains in the community of Ponzano Veneto. It is a mixture of emotions that are distributed between history and the present, between the material of art, concrete and spiritual, and the past which was concrete but which now lies, as a memory.

      Paintings, sculptures and bas-reliefs for Primo Piano Studio in Treviso

      The studio has been entirely enriched with art inserts, works by Mario Eremita and his son Michelangelo Eremita. The name of the place itself has been interpreted and inserted into a bronze sculpture.

      There are: a plastic stucco bas-relief measuring 2 meters in length and 1.2 meters in height with the theme of musicians and the cornucopia; paintings on wood dedicated to mythological themes such as “the birth of Venus”; “Venus”; “Apollo and Daphne”; “Endymion”; “Venetian Lagoon”.

      The works and themes performed are the result of philological research which aimed to associate the classic cultural references of aesthetic beauty with body care. Greek mythology was chosen for these inserts. The works were created between 1999 and 2001.

        The composition represents three artists, two dancers intent on the tango choreography and a woman sitting next to her while she plays the bandoneon, a characteristic instrument of the milonguero tradition. The draping of the black shawl is particular and intense, which in the past was the most common accessory of venetian women.

        The warm and lively shades highlight the moment of intense passion and creative tension while the starry sky recalls the desire for freedom and to fly high.

        The mural was painted in a venetian residence a few steps from Piazza San Marco, in the heart of the historic city in a context of high, elegant, refined and sober tenor. With its chromatic power, the “tango” mural stands out even if the shades match those of the premises.
