Danny Avidan
Danny Avidan (1989, Kingston, Jamaica) lives and works between Berlin e a Pesaro (Italy).
He earned BFA with honor from Bezalel Academy of Art and Design | Fine Arts | Jerusalem, Israel in 2012 and he attended the Universität der Künste| Class of Christiane Möbus in Berlin in 2010-2011.
Avidan’s work is driven by action and process. He begins each painting directly on the canvas. The scene takes shape intuitively, guided by the movement of his body and the natural flow of the paint. Like his characters, the paintings themselves seek to be more than they are, and in that pursuit, they must be undone. Each scene is erased and re-created over and over, buried beneath layers of plaster, paint, and pencil lines.
In 2022, he held a solo exhibition at Tube Culture Hall.
