“Questo disegno riprende il lavoro scultoreo Apricot Balla Balla del 2010: un’opera sulla resistenza, danza macabra di un’illusoria memoria, nata durante un lungo periodo di residenza in un ex stabilimento”.
Dario Pecoraro’s research employs painting and sculpture as responses to a perceptual urgency, intensifying chromatic variation in order to construct lyrical and dramatic scenarios that verge on abstraction. His work has been exhibited in galleries, foundations, and museums and is held in Italian and international private collections. Selected solo exhibitions include Reginae, curated by Andrea Bruciati at Galleria Massimo De Luca, Venice (2013); Human Nature at Galleria UPP, Venice (2011); Dynamical Systems, curated by Marco Scotini at Galleria Artra, Milan (2008); and Dirty Drama at Galleria Balmelli Arte Contemporanea, Bellinzona. In 2009, his photographic project The_Chase won the Italian Contemporary Photography Prize sponsored by Telecom Italia. He currently oversees the laboratory programme within the Department of Visual Arts at NABA in Milan. He lives and works in Milan.
