Daniele Galliano was born in 1961, in the quaint town of Pinerolo. His insatiable thirst for knowledge led him to be a self-taught artist. As early as the 1990s, he began to showcase his exceptional talent in his hometown, Turin, where he currently resides and works. In a remarkably short period of time, his works earned him a distinguished position in the emerging Italian painting scene.
Galliano’s unique approach to art, characterized by “photographic realism,” has paved the way for him to participate in significant solo and group exhibitions all around the globe.
In 2006, he was invited by Antonio Zaya to exhibit his work at the prestigious Ninth Biennale of Havana. In 2009, he reached new heights by showcasing his work at the 53rd Biennale of Venice, followed by a splendid display at the third edition of the Kochi-Muziris Biennale in Kerala in 2016.
Additionally, Galliano has had numerous solo exhibitions, including those at the Galleria Annina Nosei (New York, 1996 and 1997), Galleria In Arco (Turin, 1992 and 1994), and the Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna (Rome, 1996).
His impeccable work has also been featured in various collective shows at prestigious galleries such as the Galleria d’Arte Moderna of Bologna, XII Quadrennial in Rome, Galleria Civica of Trento, Rupertinum Museum of Salzburg, Magasin of Grenoble, and the Palazzo delle Papesse in Siena.
The demand for Galliano’s paintings has earned him a place in some of the most coveted public and private collections. Some notable ones include the Galleria Civica d’arte Moderna and Contemporanea in Turin, Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna in Rome, MART of Trento and Rovereto, and the Unicredit Private Banking Collection of Milan.
Apart from his exceptional work in the art world, Galliano has also collaborated with esteemed musicians, directors, and writers over the years, further elevating his already celebrated reputation.
