Daniele Fortuna Colormination Sculptures

Overview
"The sculptures connect the old tradition of Italian painting with a pop-art way of expression."
On May 27th, 2020 we are excited to present Daniele Fortuna’s most iconic series - Colormination. Featuring an exclusive selection of 20 unique sculptures, Colormination turns the renaissance sculpture inside out. Inspired by ancient mythology, Fortuna gives old images a modern life.
Fortuna was born in Milan, Italy in 1981. After graduating from the European Institute of Design in Milan, and spending a few years abroad studying art in Ireland, Fortuna moved back to Italy. Here, in his studio in Piacenza, is where he has been working on his sculptures.
Inspired by the Italian art he grew up with, Fortuna started to imagine the story behind the paintings. He felt attracted to the objects and elements in the paintings by artists like Giorgio De Chirico, Aligi Sassu, and Lucio Fontana. Fortuna interprets those elements by giving them the third dimension and as he says ”contaminating” them with contemporary color. The sculptures connect the old tradition of Italian painting with a pop-art way of expression. Each of Fortuna’s sculptures is composed of a number of small, wooden, painted elements that are being put together like a jigsaw puzzle.
Please reach out directly for further details and pre-sale opportunities.
