Stephen Max This month while browsing through some of the old 35mm slides from Helga Voci shoebox collection, I discovered and restored a 35 MM slide of this beautiful painting by Diego™ titled La Fille du Port. The only information I have from the slide is the title and size (70 X 80 CM).

IN THE #STUDIO #1980’S

Diego in his Studio dual image

Helga Voci, (widow of DIEGO Voci) shares the behind the scenes in these photos of DIEGO.

“These 2 photos were taken in Diego’s studio in Taunusstein, Germany sometime in the 80’s. This was his easel and the place where he spent most of his time.”

Versatility was Diego’s strength.  Driven to experiment in every genre while remaining distinctly DIEGO.

#VENUS #FAMOUS #DEATH IN #BATTLE

Content below is from page 5 of 8, 1974 Diego Catalog by Coop Cooprider, #DiegoVoci™#Historian.

A witty, gracious, confident man, DIEGO does not hunger for success.  He tells those who wish to exploit him, “You want to make me something in the sky with wings…go ahead.  You want to make me famous… go ahead.  But this is not my life.”

Painted by DIEGO for Naffouj Gallery Death in Battle” 1969 47 ½” x 36 ¼” oil on burlap

 “A man look at woman…this is cerebral feeling.  Venus is love god… who made her?  In reality Venus never existed.  I like for example fat woman… that’s the way I build Venus.  Or I like skinny woman… that’s the way I build Venus.  If I am important enough, that’s enough to influence 90% of the world.” – DIEGO, 1974

POTENTIAL #DIEGOVOCI MODEL – KICKING HERSELF

Cheryl McCarra Fairchild and her husband Dan were stationed in Germany from 1974-1977 in the Karlsruhe area. Cheryl remembered to Kami (Diego Voci Project):

“I met Diego for the first time at an OWC (Officer’s Wives Club Luncheon).  I fell in love with Diego’s work and his personality. I wanted to buy an oil painting.  On a Lieutenant’s salary we eventually settled for 3 Diego lithographs which we bought over time from Lillian Dussard.”

“When our family retired to the US in Georgia years later, I started searching online for DIEGO paintings. I found our first oil painting: “Giovene Ragazza”.  The profile reminded me of my mother”.

Giovene Ragazza  44990

Diego’s vibrant and bright colors in the scarves almost contradict the calm serene and fine features of her eyes and lips.

Cheryl recalls;

“Diego actually asked me to model for him.  At the time I had two small children and saw no way to do that. I’m kicking myself now!”

Though Helga Voci, Diego’s widow, states;

“Diego rarely used models, Diego painted from memory.” 

Helga was referring to studio models.  Evidence is frequent that out of the studio face to face in the moment, a face of a woman or man, young or old, would inspire Diego.  Example: http://www.artifactcollectors.com/diego-voci-painting-of-the-week-5154118/Page9.html#91027; an interesting story of a black beauty with intriguing eyes.

And stay tuned for more exciting news from the Fairchild’s and the “New Generation”. 

This is just one of many examples of the impact Diego had on people.  Please share your stories like these at www.diegovociproject.com or
