| The powerful and captivating artwork of Joseph
Vargo opens a gateway to the darkside and dares the viewer to
venture within. While his work is dominated by an immense and
memorable array of ominous and often nightmarish entities, his
timeless images are also permeated with tremendous beauty, grace
and symmetry. His art has achieved a resonance and popularity
partially because of this ability to shed light on the inner
demons that lurk in the shadows of the mind, while also not forgetting
the sometimes majestic grandeur that resides there as well. With
an introduction and summaries by Joseph Iorillo and additional
commentaries by the artist, this volume offers comprehensive
insights into Vargo's gothic domain. |
