Michael Brangoccio American (b.1954) Abstract mix media 1987, pencil signed and dated lower right 29 x 22 1/4 in. (73.7 x 56.5 cm.), Frame: 37 1/2 x 30 in. (95.3 x 76.2 cm.) Michael Brangoccio Artist Biography: Michael Brangoccio's original content and textures create picture worlds like no other. A well-trained draftsman comfortable with formal composition, Brangoccio juxtaposes objects, sizes, and relationships to arrest attention, provoke questions, and prompt observers into finding personal meanings for his works. Intentionally symbolic, Brangoccio's works present puzzles. Certain objects reoccur and present contradictions and inconsistencies of size, placement, and object selection. Elephants float. Bears roam in unlikely settings. Miniature airplanes seem aggressively out of place. Even in those few canvases that fit within the boundaries of realism, there is a hint of mystery, of something more to be known. With Brangoccio's paintings, a viewer must address enigmas and engage both the left and right sides of the brain. https://olsonlarsen.com/artist/michael-brangoccio
