Pino Daeni, (born "Giuseppe Dangelico" in Bari, Italy, November 8, 1939 - May 25, 2010) was an Italian Impressionist book illustrator and artist. Recognized by his first grade teacher of his talents he advised Pino's father Tommaso D'Angelico to encourage his son's artistic precociousness, but his father remained skeptical of a future as an artist [1] .He studied at the Art institute of Bari, then trained at Milan’s Academy of Brera in 1960, where he honed his craft for painting from the live nude. Pino was deeply influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites and Macchiaioli and after experimentation with Expressionism he returned to his Impressionist roots, finding inspiration in the works of such artists as Sargeant, Sorolla, and Boldini[2] . From 1960 to 1979 his work garnered several prizes and awards. During this period he was commissioned by two of Italy's largest publishers, Mondadori and Rizzoli, for numerous book illustrations. After a visit to Manhattan in 1971, Pino's experiences of the art scene at that period led him to feel restricted in Milan and in 1978, he moved to New York with his wife Chiara, seven-year old daughter Paola, and five-year old son, Massimo, where he believed the artistic freedom would allow him greater opportunities.[3]
Under the sponsorship of the Borghi Gallery he held several shows in New York and Massachusetts. His unique style of feminine, romantic women and strong men painted with his loose but accurate brushwork caught the attention of both Dell and Zebra Book Publishers, and soon after Bantam, Simon and Schuster, Penguin USA, Dell, and Harlequin, where he would illustrate over 3000 book covers, movie posters and magazine illustrations to become one of the highest paid American illustrators at that time. His romance novel covers, painted for such authors as Danielle Steele, Sylvie Summerfield, & Amanda Ashley helped sell millions of books using a then unknown fellow Milanese Italian model named Fabio. In 1992 Pino felt the strains of tight deadlines and eager to leave illustration behind to return to his Impressionist style, he contacted one of the major galleries in Scottsdale, Arizona The May Gallery, and sent five paintings which were well received. From then on his paintings appeared in Morris & Whiteside Gallery in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina and Sunflower Fine Art Gallery in Garden City, Long Island NY. Pino made several appearances on major TV networks and was interviewed in national and international journals. His continues to appear in art galleries all over the world and his giclée prints sell into the thousands of dollars. [4] [5] [6] [7]
Style
His subject matter often revolves around sensous women in beaches and boudoir settings indoors in tetradic color schemes that evoke a nostalgia of the 19 century with women that are beautiful yet confident. Pino painted with oils on linen. His trademark brushwork is characterized by softly lit females painted with smooth greenish shadows and distinctive, thick pastel-tinted highlights, often with vibrant colored dresses and backgrounds. Noted for his ability to capture fleeting expressions and movement, his women are often lost in thought or waiting for their lovers.[1]
