Marginal Art

-*-

"A world of magic, of genius, of misunderstanding of madness governs the life and the work of any artist marginal, even though their lives are sad, monotonous, gray and painfully ephemeral, his work conceived between the joy and the pain lasts forever"

Art Gross or Marginal.

The life of Henry Darger was always marked by tragedy, first the sudden death of his mother, after delivery of his only sister up for adoption, and to conclude with the misfortunes of his childhood, at the age of eight her father not being able to keep it interned him in a Catholic Orphanage, there because of an extreme passion for masturbation was admitted to a Psychiatric Center until after several attempts to escape at the age of 16 years was able to escape what he subsequently defined in their stories, as a piece of hell located on Earth.

* Marginal Art *

His darker world,
More sinister age,
His fear, his anger and his rage,
In the service of his brushes.

Its more sinister wind,
His most wicked life,
His hatred, his zeal and your time,
Between words and emotions.

From Van Gogh to Magde Hill,
Between Antoni Ribas, Gallows,
The genius, is
Marginal performers.

From Van Gogh to Magde Hill,
Between Antoni Ribas, Gallows,
There is a subliminal world,
Between gods and mortals.

His deep world
Its more secretive fence,
His EGO, his soul and life,
Delivered to the laurels.

Their war, their peace and their world,
Its most sincere collapse,
its most glorious verse,
By and for readers.

From Van Gogh to Magde Hill, between Antoni Ribas, José Cadalso, Henry Dargel stands out as a special artist, a marginal creator committed, a survivor of the fate that has left evidence of some magical worlds in disappearance, a witness at the time of horror, obscurantism and superstition persecutions suffered by all the States of North America.

* Arte Marginal *

Su mundo más oscuro,
Sus años más siniestros,
Su miedo, su ira y su rabia,
Al servicio de sus pinceles.

Su lado más siniestro,
Sus días más perversos,
Su odio, su celo y su tristeza,
Entre palabras y emociones.

Desde Van Gogh a Magde Hill,
Entre Antoni Ribas o Cadalso,
Se encuentra la genialidad,
De los artistas marginales.

Desde Van Gogh a Magde Hill,
Entre Antoni Ribas o Cadalso,
Hay un mundo subliminal,
Entre dioses y mortales.

Su sueño más profundo,
Sus meses más secretos,
Su EGO, su vida y su alma,
Entregadas a los laureles.

Su amor más sincero,
Sus versos más gloriosos,
Su guerra, su paz y su calma,
Por y para los lectores.

Desde Van Gogh a Magde Hill, entre Antoni Ribas o José Cadalso, Henry Dargel destaca como un artista especial, un creador marginal comprometido, un superviviente de la fatalidad que ha dejado constancia de unos mundos mágicos en desaparición, un testigo de esa época de horror, de oscurantismo y de persecuciones supersticiosas que sufrieron todos los Estados de Norteamérica.

Lucas Lazar. Contando Historias.

His most frenetic creative activity was initiated at the beginning of 1930, Darger settled in that room on the North Side of Chicago where after his death with the consequent it awe of their home-made graphic and literary legacy was found, once reviewed his endless work he came to a conclusion, that the taciturn man than all its neighbors suspected and labelled of rare was a genius compared in height to the greatest geniuses of the literary and art history certifies it that work replete with symbols, love and beauty where children were enslaved by cruel adults seeking them to deviate from the path of innocence to immerse them in the confines of the Vice, the more perverse slavery and roads filled with anger, malice and hatred.

The murals and the work of Darger is not written to be observed or read, but to live it that way who lived it the author in each of its chapters.

The Vivians story takes place on a giant planet which rotates the Earth, its inhabitants are Catholic and Christian, plot revolves around the seven princesses Christian daughters of the King of Abbiennia and opponents of child slavery imposed by the cruel glanslinianos, children supported by The Seven Princesses are revealed against their oppressors, resulting in bloody wars in which form it often children are murdered and tortured by the Monsters the Glans.

We know that Henry Darger was inspired by reading the State black Chronicle, from the Ogre of New York that devoured its victims, to that murder in 1911 where a little girl was brutally strangled served to Darger's reference to create their stories, the little girl, Elsie Paroubek, appears in his account with the name Anna Aronburg and whose murder marks the beginning of The Child Revolution.

In his plastic work highlights the human figure immersed in a world devoid of sex with extreme brutality, at its most primary base is that eternal struggle of the forces of good against evil, you have misrepresented these representations of beautiful girls with female attributes such as a plea in favour of transsexuality, but many scholars of his peculiar work agree that Darger because that fear to stay overnight with her own sister demanded not never with No woman and that he did not know the shape of the female genital tract, but one way or another, life and work of Henry Dargel is marked by her terrible childhood, the soul of a genius trapped inside a mind deeply damaged in their self-esteem.

When I imagine the author as a timid shadow walking the streets of Chicago looking for between the material garbage for his work overwhelms me tenderness, when I see him trying to escape from that Catholic hell they marked him forever comes anger, but when I see him in his room writing and putting together those fantastic collages as big bullets for his stories I lose myself among such tenderness and my dreamy soul cries by the greatest of all marginal artist the history of art, and possibly there resides the greatness of the work of Henry Dargel, strong impact empathetic that produces in his readers.

Huge cartoons created just for your eyes and a few stories that were not written to be read, but as an extension of the author's sad and poor life, impact on the reader and all persons amazement they discover a part of his extensive work, how accurate bullets aimed at the most sensitive of the human heart and dark part.

Henry Darger tried to escape but was afraid and that fear forced him to create to try to escape from the daily horror that was submitted, today while his work is admired and studied his spirit to the millimeter free through these streets of Chicago why he spent his life.

The life of Henry Darger is given for the script of a film's success, its title 'Marginal' and with the subtitle in smaller letters "Henry of Straw”.

PS:

Tony Taylor in relation to this writing of his countryman would say… Very Worked!, and has reason, but I as the dancer in the story, apart from magic have easy to write and stories leave me alone, for this just written I've needed entering Wikipedia only once and for a single datum , for those things rare of mind between writing and other writing by this author can never remember whether the surname of Henry Darger or Danger is, suppose that after today and never forget me.

Dargel I've written about much, and apart from the fact that I never tire of writing about this man, always learn something new from his miserable life and about his fascinating personality.

"There are damned works that signal to perpetrators if they were made public in life of these, witch hunts which suffered from North America in the 1950s possibly had accused paedophile or obscene morbidity Dargel, Dargel knew it and due to that he led a double life, day was a little gray man, which worked on the collection of solid waste from Chicago and was retired after going six or seven times to mass in a single day, but when night sitting on the inviolability of the home is transformed and became a great artist of genius and creative activity, and that is his legacy"
