About The Artwork
On a trip to Italy in 1992, the artist Joaquin De Mondo visited a friend in the town of Malcesine, Italy. He spent a few days there, and since his host was away on business during the day, he regularly walked around the old town, where he noticed a nice restaurant. Unfortunately, this restaurant was closed on all the days he visited the old town. However, it was open on the last morning before his planned departure. Joaquin decided to have breakfast here shortly before his departure. He only had a short time. After ordering his breakfast, it took several hours before he was served. As he didn't speak Italian and the waiter didn't speak English, Joaquin couldn't do anything. Time was running out to catch the flight for his departure. To make matters worse, a tire blew out later on the way to the airport. Joaquin decided to extend his stay. His good friend and host Michael S. was married to an Italian woman and offered that his wife could teach him Italian for the rest of his stay. Joaquin gratefully accepted this offer. A few weeks later, when he was due to continue his journey, Joaquin went back to the lovely restaurant and ordered breakfast again. When he realized that the waiter was again very slow and that he risked missing his flight again, he said to the waiter: AVANTI, AVANTI, ho bisogno della mia colazione, altrimenti non riuscirò a prendere il volo! The waiter was pleased that a foreign guest spoke his language and immediately brought Joaquin his breakfast, but that wasn't all. He came with a bottle of Ramazotti, which he and Joaquin drank immediately that morning, and they talked about art late into the night. As a result, Joaquin missed his flight again. This friendly experience and the positive, clear memories associated with it prompted Joaquin to paint this picture, and he gave it the title: " Dynamic Neon Pink: AVANTI AVANTI ! "

Joaquin De Mondo's art reveals a tension resulting from rational doubt, which for him follows from the inadequacies of modernism and the recognizable inapplicability of conservative views. His doubt is the origin of his striving for clear artistic statements - sometimes overly concrete, sometimes mysteriously abstract - executed with strong colours and evident dynamism in form and lines, but sometimes in a different way: in disciplined geometric compositions. Joaquin De Mondo's active and creative power and his seriousness in dealing with current issues of nature and culture lead to a variety of interesting and meaningful representations and compositions in his oeuvre, which reflect his feelings on a surprising level. His works are captivating analyses of existence and will, his contemplations, ideas and dreams. Joaquin De Mondo works conscientiously and at a remarkable standard. Interesting about his more recent works is the powerful stillness, the use of strong colours, an unusual relief-like structural technique, striking colour transitions, with an astonishing harmonic dynamic, which leads directly to the motto of his ambitions: A primal direct force that communicates itself to the viewer at first glance and holds him captive.
