Statement
Dino Bruzzone's work is a profound and wonderful
investigation of Desire.
Architect of a system of representation Dino Bruzzone
throughout his work reflects on representation and
perception, photography, models, peepshows,
installations and today through painting in all its splendor
he invites us to see and imagine.
The sensuality of beauty is structural , in a conceptual
appropriation it takes a fetish comic like Archie , an
American comic from 1942 that marked the erotic fantasy
of an entire generation .
A triangle of desire of the protagonists generated in the
plot between Archie, Veronica and Betty opens a series
of exquisite paintings.
Dino Bruzzone, in an elegant and intellectual way, paints
with the best pantone colors in each series, and creates a
form of optical phenomenon where the point (today the
pixel) amplifies the effect of what we see.
He, they, he with her, he with them, he in the sun, they in
the sun, humor, romance, idealized love crushes,
seduction, vertigo, adrenaline, fascination, all those
beauties sensations in a sophisticated form of
contemporary painting, today in the era of apps and new
sexual codes.
