Andy Piedilato at Danese/Corey

Recent paintings by Andy Piedilato at gallery Danese/Corey in New York City.

Hey New Yorkers, here comes a great exhibition you shouldn’t miss. A collection of recent paintings by Andy Piedilato is currently on display at gallery Danese/Corey. Inspired by his friend’s passion for boat building, Andy Piedilato’s latest series of large, imposing artworks exposes the strange beauty of shipwrecks. Furthermore, they convey a timeless fascination with natural disasters, storms, and the raging sea. The artist has masterfully created a dialogue between narrative and intentionally chaotic abstraction. Made with a mix of house paint and alkyd medium, his colorful paintings offer multi-layered surfaces. Please read more below.
