David De Biasio




David de Biasio was born in Jesolo (Venice) on August 8 1973. At the age of 19, after attending the Istituto Magistrale, he transferred to Rome, where he began taking courses at the Fine Arts Academy of Rome. He graduated in 1998 presenting a thesis on Gustave Moreau, a copy of which is in the Museum of Gustave Moreau in Paris, and he realized several decorations, trompe l'oeil, mural paintings in private houses, cultural circles, hotels from Treviso to Rome. In 2003 he transferred to New York city where he began to work as assistant for Mark Kostabi, and he began to study under Nelson Shanks at the Art Students League. Through a constant study of the techniques used by the great masters of the past (Tiziano, Leonardo da Vinci, Caravaggio, Gustave Moreau), he has found the inspiration to achieve a certain expressive tension in his recent works. Fruit or objects, solemn in their ordinariness, are brushed by a grazing light revealing familiar shapes that speak to all of us by their very materiality. Against dark backgrounds, some objects stand out like silent guards immersed in a timeless space, such as the old chipped bricks that lend order to the composition. These are personal mementos, memories to which he imparts color and shape, taking care not to neglect the fundamental strokes that instantly convey an accurate image. It is by studying the real that he discovers his deep fascination for life and every single one of its temporal elements.
