Description
Artist: PinoSignature: Signed by the artistTitle: "Cliffside Retreat"Edition: NumberedMedium: Giclee on CanvasSize: 32" x 40" Condition: ExcellentBiography: * Pino, born Guiseppe Dangelico in Bari on November 8, 1939, began his studies at the city s Art Institute. In 1960 he entered Milan s Academy of Brera where he perfected his talent for painting nudes. In the two years he studied at the Academy, he came under the influence of the Pre-Raphaelites and Macchiaioli. From 1960 to 1979, his work appeared in several major exhibitions throughout Italy and Europe. He was also commissioned by Italy s two largest publisher s, Mondadori and Rizzoli, for book illustrations. However, he felt restricted in Milan. He wanted more artistic freedom, which he believed he could find in the United States. * After knocking on many doors, in February of 1980, Zebra Books Publishers promised him a job, commissioning him to do a book cover.His interpretation was new, fresh and sensual. Stylistically, he brought the characters into the foreground where his technique and talent for painting the anatomy was celebrated. His illustrations were so successful that he gained entr e into creative relationships with many leading publishers of romance novels. His popularity grew within the literary community and he became the artist-in-demand for Zebra, Bantam, Simon and Schuster, Harlequin, Penguin USA and Dell. From 1980 to 1993 he dedicated himself totally to this art where his style dominated and influenced the market. His illustrations combined elements fresh from Europe with a powerful sensuality, bringing this medium to new heights. * Reminiscent of his childhood environment, Pino s paintings are generally set in coastal, sunny, and vibrantly floral places. He uses a colorful pallet to create tender pleasurable feelings. His fine art is rich with sensuality, rousing the memory through all the senses. Pino s paintings resurrect in us the incidents of those simple, priceless moments we have stored in our memories and have so frequently forgotten. *
