Who is Vittorio TESSARO?
And how can he express himself
covering such different
topics and techniques?
The man, above all, is also made of emotions, moods and states of mmd
that can change continuously also in the short space of some minute.
Now the artist is nothing else that the excitement, sometimes exasperated,
of these states of mind.
Emotionally he is for sure more sensitive than most of his fellow-men
and therefore, from a certain point of view, certainly more receptive
to external stimulus of whichever nature they are. It is understood that
this is not enough for being an artist, also the manual and interpretative
ability is needed. But if the three things coexist, (emotion, manuality
and expressive interpretation) here the artist becomes master of the matter
that he uses to such a point as to be able to deal with it as he best
likes and in that precise moment glorifying the Art and himself, succeeding
to catch up to times one strange and inexplicable feeling of immense and
absolute freedom. When I begin a work of art, it is not said that this
one must be completed before beginning another one.
How many times I have begun a job and then left it unfinished for months
or even years. Normally I bring forward more jobs in the same period,
and most of the time with topics that are discordant between them, therefore
it is following the mood with which I awake in the morning or the inspiration
given from the moment, that I can attack the matter if it is a draft of
a vibrating bull or a nervous horse, as I can caress the same one if it
is for example a draft of a woman nude, of an adolescent or of a child
or classic dancer portrait..., or still, setting myself in front of the
matter with a completely different attitude if it is the draft of an athlete,
a gymnast, or contorsionist, or other ...
I do not place myself and I do not want myself to be placed within forced
limits as some critic of Art has rightly suggested to me: "choose
a line or a topic and keep to it until the public learns to recognize
you instantly".
Certainly, I recognize that it is the simplest and fastest method in order
to achieve fame, but an artist worthy of such name does not have to betray
himself and the art. With this, I do not want to say that all that comes
out from my hands is pure art dictated from goodness knows what.
Some times in the past I have had to execute commissioned jobs that had
nothing to do with the art, but these are the compromises that an artist
must accept at the beginning. I think that such determination, constancy
and stubborness, mine and Tinas, who many times has inspired me
in the twenty years of marriage, has made my artistic identification possible.
Often I think to be lucky to have this talent in my hands and to have
met my wife who is still today my beautiful inspiring muse.
It was indeed my wife, who has believed in me, who has encouraged me to
continue and who many times, also in the moments of deeper crisis has
been dose to me making me find again the faith in myself. I love my job,
and I can not imagine another one for me. I love the art, I love the child,
who is always alive and present in me every time that spontaneity and
self-identification are involved. Nearly always, when I am working, I
feel the subject vibrating and pulsating under my fingers and at the same
time I perceive the breath and the odours as if the matter was coming
to Life I live the sculpture with ail the senses, I feel the neighing
of the horse, the stamping of the hooves, and the trembling of muscles
and of the bull I feel the force and the powerful breath. Moulding a woman
nude, looking for the shapes, and when you have found them returning over
them once, twice and then again nearly wanting to extract still more and
more beauty. I am almost never completely satisfied with my works, but
I think that this thing for the artist is of vital importance.
I do not feel myself as fulfilled, I am only following my way and following
it with joy and curiosity. I love the beautiful life, nature and things
that it offers to me.
I love my wife more than everything else and I like her sensitivity when
she kisses a flower whispering tender words to it. I love to dedicate
myself to the AIKIDO from which I draw positive energy as well as a certain
order that fundamentally lacks in me. But it is through sculpture that
I better succeed to express myself. I feel that in life you must be constantly
in love in order to succeed to draw the best from it and at the same time
to give the best of us. Everyone of us has their own road to follow, it
is enough to only follow it with passion, naturally, with reason and a
certain amount of modesty.
