Accardigliani

Daniele Oldani's introverted nature conceals a sacrilegious world painted with acrylics and oil pastels. A creative mind, he has made art his raison d'être. He began reproducing Amedeo Modigliani's drawings at a young age. His early admiration for Modigliani is an eloquent sign of his artistic sensibility. Not only Modigliani, but also Dubuffet and "Art Brut," Jean-Michel Basquiat, Giorgio de Chirico, Mark Ryden, Fernando Botero, and Renaissance religious art have inspired Oldani. Nor should we forget his past as a writer and his studies at the Milan School of Comics. Throughout his life, he has worked both as an illustrator for Warner Bros. and as a tattoo artist. A tortuous path led Oldani to establish himself in painting, his true vocation. His background, therefore, has allowed him to develop remarkable technical skill in drawing. Over the course of his artistic research, Oldani has experimented with a wide range of painting techniques. He prefers acrylic paint because it dries quickly. Oil pastels, on the other hand, allow him to achieve a more lively and instinctive style. The Lombard artist is fully aware of the drama of our existence. His existential pain is channeled and released onto canvas with refined refinement. The paintings of the artist, born in 1979, express a profound capacity for communication. The Lombard artist addresses social issues with bitter irony. Oldani, like a rapper, creates poetic expressions, but in the form of images, although he often combines the images with phrases written backwards, imbuing his works with further meaning. His studio, located in a basement in the Milanese suburbs, is a hotbed of delicately restless artworks. Whether it's his "Art Brut" series, the "SuperModì" series, or his "Pietà" series, Oldani's touch is unmistakable.
