Episode Synopsis
Episode 459 / Dana Piazza
Dana Piazza is a visual artist who creates abstract drawings and paintings on paper, panel, and canvas through a process of open-ended experimentation, repeating simple marks with brushes, markers, pens, and nibs. The meticulous forms that Piazza conjures on his flat surfaces depict the illusion of depth and movement; they seem voluminous, carrying significant visual weight. He approaches each work as though it were both a puzzle and an experiment, and lets the materials and tools determine the process.
Dana lives and works in Lenox, Massachusetts. He looks forward to featuring at Dallas Art Fair and having his first solo exhibition with TURLEY, by whom he is represented, in the Spring of 2025. His work has previously appeared in solo exhibitions at Art Austerlitz in Austerlitz, New York; Thompson Giroux Gallery in Chatham, New York; and Jennifer Terzian Gallery in Litchfield, Connecticut. His numerous group exhibitions include “Flat Files at OyG” at Ortega y Gasset Projects in Brooklyn; “Concentrated” at Galerie Manqué in Brooklyn; “Art on Paper” at Muriel Guépin Gallery in New York City; and “Guilty Pleasures” at Geoffrey Young Gallery in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. Piazza received a BFA from Purchase College, State University of New York.
