Mario Eremita’s sculptures and paintings dedicated to the seasons, mythology, the solar system, the masks of commedia dell’arte, astrology, tarot cards
Artworks carried out in 1990 at the Da Pino Restaurant in Viale della Repubblica in Treviso. The works are of different genres. There are stucco bas-reliefs and wall paintings.
The artistic insert was created at the headquarters in Viale della Repubblica in a structure from the beginning of the twentieth century. Themes of: the seasons, the stars and planets, Ceres and Endymion, Hercules and Juno or the Milky Way were proposed.
These themes were executed with wall paintings on prefabricated structures. Stucco bas-reliefs on wooden panels were placed around them with the themes of tarot cards, horoscopes and mythology.
These works are a personal expression of the artist’s imagination in concert with the technical and formal needs of the places. The quality of time spent inside the premises of the “Da Pino” restaurant is not comparable to that spent in a conventional public place; but it comes close to the experience of visiting a museum.
The artistic embellishment of the premises offers a very stimulating dialectical perspective and makes the aesthetic experience a natural part of everyday life, allowing the enrichment of our mind; allowing reflection and contemplation, experiences with high added value.
In the past, these experiences did not have a specific and dedicated location (museum, art gallery); but they served as a corollary to mystical or more concrete contact with power.
Today we can bring the experience of art to community gathering places without any justification other than the intent to provide a positive emotion.
