> STATEMENT
Bruno Daniele was born at Alba, Italy, in 1948.
He gets his diploma in advertising graphics in Turin and he follows nude courses at Pippo Bercetti’s studio. After that, for his engraver activity, he attends the Chalcography School at the Accademia Raffaello in Urbino. After his figurative works of the beginning (1960s/70s), part of a socially and ecologically committed painting, where the figures of social outcasts became the protagonists, Daniele in the early 1980s chooses an informal matter painting. He follows a research path (Exhaust Lands) which, under the influence of Burri and his fellow-citizen Gallizio, makes him use the most different materials, such as jute, cardboard, tar, polystyrene, oxides, epoxidic resins.
The beginning of the 1990s coincides with the painter’s full maturity.
Daniele is essentially a restless artist: he enjoys researching and he is really motivated by his need of experimenting. He thinks his artistic cycle from 1980 to the early 90s is over by now. He doesn’t refuse matter for sure but his operating ways have changed. He doesn’t use any more cardboard, jute and polystyrene collages, which he thinks are rather limiting his gestures. He operates in a less craftsman-like way.
His works always start from a project, but he leaves more room to action. He starts a new trend called “Matter movements”, where he also experiments using round shapes and triptychs. In fact the matter movements, the strongly gestural painting, the colour desecrated by black slashes, and yet exalted by little hope openings, represented by the cracks, by the white spaces, are the characteristics of this artist’s works.
