Allan D'Arcangelo 1
Allan D'Arcangelo was an American artist and printmaker. D'Arcangelo was born in Buffalo on June 16, 1930, to Italian immigrant parents. After earning a degree in history from the University of Buffalo, he moved to Mexico City where he studied art. In 1958, he held his first one-man show. His style, loosely termed Hard Edge or Constructivist Art, was based on spatial relationships. A keen sense of perception, complemented by expert use of color tones and shadows, points up these relationships in forceful compositions. It has been said that, “D'Arcangelo has the ability to defy, yet document, spatial relationships at the same time”. The recipient of 15 awards and commissions, D'Arcangelo had frequent one-man shows, many of which were in prominent museums throughout America. His selected exhibitions include, “American Landscape Painting” at Museum of Modern Art, “American Art Since 1945” at Museum of Modern Art, “Popular Imagery” in Sarah Lawrence College and “The Popular Image” at The Institute for Contemporary Art, were among some of them. D'Arcangelo passed away on December 17, 1998 in New York City due to complications with leukemia.
