Despite the resolved surfaces and forms that distinguish much of John Dante Bianchi‘s work, his cavernous studio reveals an unexpected collection of detritus and treasures: pitched electronics accumulated over years of walking down his Brooklyn street, ghostly screen-printed photographs of hippies, a sculpture of a narwhal, and guitar pedals cast into assemblages are just a few.

Relying on Photoshop and the sense of irony that…Read More

For his solo exhibition “Unavoidable Encounter,” John Dante Bianchi has made sculptures that initially register as paintings attempting to escape their supports. Concertina-like folds of what seems to be canvas—but is actually immaculately engineered strata of wood and aluminum—wrest from their stretcher bars, rising and jutting forth in sharply angled planes, revealing trusses and screws beneath. Acrylic paint is applied to the surfaces in layers, then sanded back to form warm clouds of pinks, purples, and oranges, with patches of…Read More
