About Daniele Fortuna
Daniele Fortuna, originally a design student from Milan, has developed a remarkable career as a sculptor. His work is known for merging classical sculptural techniques with modern Pop Art influences, creating pieces that are both visually striking and rich in cultural commentary. Using brightly colored wood, Daniele crafts sculptures that are playful yet thoughtful, often exploring themes of human identity and contemporary social issues.
Daniele's works include sculptures with classical subjects such as Venus and Zeus to sculptures with Pop subjects such as Batman and Mickey Mouse, his notable series such as "Colormination," "Heads Will Roll," and "Thologiny," demonstrate his ability to blend vibrant aesthetics with complex thematic content. These series are celebrated for their inventive use of materials and colors as well as their engaging narratives.
Deodato Art Gallery, a space dedicated to contemporary art, perfectly complements our vision by highlighting innovative artistic expressions. Our partnership with Deodato Art Gallery has allowed us to present Daniele Fortuna’s compelling artworks at our Pop Up store.
