Danielle Duer (American, 1977)


Danielle Duer is a professional artist living and working from her studio in Nashville, Tennessee. Her unusual pieces have been described as haunting and romantic.
She uses bold, beautiful color combinations and layers the main images with dainty details so that the viewer can stare for hours and always see something new.
These narrative paintings are quite feminine and successfully possess both realistic and fanciful charm. She includes symbolism to tell lighthearted stories that are metaphors for deeper truths and philosophies in her own life.

Dalila Del Valle, 1958

Dalila Del Valle è assolutamente una pittrice di grande riconoscibilità, qualità inequivocabile del possesso di uno stile proprio, caratterizzato da bei volti e figure nude che, contemporaneamente, sono ricoperte da incredibili tatuaggi sulla pelle.
A queste due condizioni bisognerebbe aggiungerne altre due: l'esclusività della tecnica e la cultura propria della città o del paese dove espone le sue opere, cambiando il motivo dei suoi tatuaggi.
Nessuno come lei sa impregnare della sua personalità e della sua enorme capacità tecnica le sue opere e commesse.
Tanto è vero che ha saputo guadagnarsi l'ammirazione di colleghi, curatori e, dei più importanti critici d'arte, oltre che del pubblico in genere.

Fidel Garcia (Mexican, 1960)


The art of Fidel Garcia blends figurative realism and abstract expressionism. His paintings call upon the viewer to experience the concurrency of our corporeal and spiritual selves, the coincidence of reality and fantasy, and the simultaneous existence of the physical and the metaphysical.
Rather than simply asking for acknowledgement of these diametric forces, Garcia’s paintings assist us in finding the harmony and balance between them.
Each image that emerges from his evolving series of canvases explores an unexpected and uncharted inner and outer world of human imagination.
