Paintings by Dario Puggioni

Dario Puggioni is an award-winning Italian artist, living and working in Berlin. His work is very dramatic and quite mysterious, figures with masked faces, lots of movement and brushwork. Dario works in oils but adds some mixed techniques to get the effects he needs. He mainly uses canvas but also uses aluminum, copper, zinc or wood for a very smooth surface which gives a more shiny finish than canvas. 

To learn more about the artist, I recommend an article by Paula O’Brien -  Dario Puggioni, studio visit Berlin with the dramatic figurative painter.

Dario is also on Tumblr.

Helice Wen’s “preludes” at Spoke Art San Francisco.

Opening on September 8th, 2018 at Spoke Art Gallery in San Francisco, California is artist Helice Wen’s fantastic solo exhibition, “preludes.”

“In music, the prelude is an introductory piece; the smaller motif that will appear repeatedly through the whole act,” Helice Wen explains. Creating a visual prelude, Wen introduces the viewer to patterns throughout her everyday life. From the wink of a candle to the unfurling of a flower and its eventual death, the artist explores the beauty of these small, fleeting moments that can be overlooked.

The exhibition will be on view until September 29th, 2018.
