He almost feels identical with this biosphere enriching and balancing itself, he becomes a witness and a part, and gives us the inside story of his understanding, all what is artistic in its vegetative existence. He rpoves that nature has a lot of new motives in store for artist, many chances for the landscape genre to develop in its tools, spirit, odd coincidences revealing the essential points, with surprising wide range of discoveries of spectrums, to analyze and extract gratifying solutions, unknown aesthetic values from observation.
It is a common misbelief among artist and art historians to say that the coloristic resources imminent in nature painting have been exhausted by the impressionists. The art of Dariusz Król is another denial of that supposition; you'll bet that there in no job that could not be taken up further. The art of this Polish artist has expanded the set of accomplishment of the planair school, not by refining the decompostion of colors, by peping up or dampening color spots, by mixing beams of light and reflactions, but primarily by retuning the dispostion of people by the truth of his pictures, by the emotional and rational charges of his sensual confessions. In the opinion of the superfluous judges his works follow proven traditions, whereas they are responses to very timely problems.
What else should be the present generation be preoccupied with but the protection of the enviroment, the severe concerns due to the hazards threatening the living world. You should not think that Dariusz Krol is involved in a kind of program painting, he is far from working to a preconceived schedule to implant cheap nostalgia into the heart of urban population suffocating in pollution of fumes only to console with painted illusions those afraid of the shortage of oxygen. instead, his pictures reflect the optimism of a mind with a guaranteed sense of proportions, a reasonable amount of authority, the belief and opinion of someone who believes in the preserving power of life and the capacity of humankind to do good.
