Gaetano Pancaldi is a poet of microcosms, of distant and now forgotten worlds, of peasant and village atmospheres relived with naivety and sincere passion, with eyes full of wonder and curiosity of the children of the past. He brings to life the rites of the countryside, the patient work of the oxen, the timeless gestures of the farmers and housewives, the rustic and welcoming environments in which the foods had unrepeatable flavors and the stories were born to become proverbs and nursery rhymes to be passed on for centuries .
Paintings in which the colors and lights rediscover the clarity of distant springs, the joy of the flights of the swallows and the songs of the reapers, atmospheres in which the falling of the snow at Christmas or the flowering of the roses in May were magical events desired as if they were happening for the first time. On the other hand, he tried to make the hysteria of the contemporary world, without joy and without wonder, where the rhythm of actions is programmed in places foreign to man and his nature, unnatural, therefore, and almost cruel. The contrast is dramatic, the effect impressive even if more technical and, so to speak, forced.
Pancaldi's true inspiration is the lost world of processions and threshing, of the stables and threshing floors shining with golden chaff, of the chicks that follow the hens along the rows tilled by the effort of the spade and the hoe. There is a sense of the harshest fatigue in his paintings, and of the simplest and purest joy.
(Valerio Massimo Manfredi)
