Biography

Daniele Bongiovanni (Palermo, 11 April 1986) is a painter who graduated and completed his postgraduate studies with honours at the Academy of Fine Arts of Palermo.

His artistic practice investigates the relationship between nature and the human figure through a process of essentialisation, progressively reducing forms to their fundamental elements. His work has been presented in solo exhibitions at numerous museums, including the GAM – Galleria d'Arte Moderna di Catania, the KCCC – Klaipėda Culture Communication Centre, Lithuania, the MACRO – Museo d'Arte Contemporanea di Roma, and Palazzo Broletto, Pavia, Italy. He has also exhibited at the Fondazione Malvina Menegaz per le Arti e le Culture, Castelbasso, Italy, MACRO Testaccio, Rome, Palazzo Sant'Elia and RISO – Museo Regionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Palermo, and in major international contexts including the Venice Art Biennale.

Bongiovanni's works are held in several public and institutional collections, including those of the Embassies of Italy in Abu Dhabi, Helsinki, and London, the University of Urbino "Carlo Bo", Italy, Casa del Mantegna, Mantua, Italy, the Fondazione Malvina Menegaz, and the Rothko Museum, Daugavpils, Latvia.

Alongside his artistic practice, Bongiovanni is a professor of Fine Arts and teaches at several university institutions, including the Pantheon Institute of Design & Technology, Rome. He also collaborates with the US-based research organisation IVLA – International Visual Literacy Association, where he served for several years as a Member of the Board of Directors.

His academic and research activities have further led him to contribute to projects and programmes promoted by leading international institutions, including King's College London and Queen Mary University of London. He has participated in conferences and academic initiatives hosted by institutions including San Diego State University, California, and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
