Galliano FARDIN

born 1948, Mogliano, Veneto, Italy
lives and works Lake Clifton, Western Australia

The paintings of Galliano Fardin are a consequence of memories and impressions of the Western Australian landscape. Fardin’s essential concern is to find a physical experience and understanding of the land, rather than the traditional need to characterize landscape in a literal sense. Fardin’s memories and notions of the land are translated onto canvas as marks, textures and colour, which echo a subjective observation rather than an analytical study of the environment. The inspiration for Fardin’s paintings comes from Coastal South West, Western Australia and the Pilbara Region where the artist has spent much of his time in recent years.
