Freedom From Fear, Ed. 1/10
Giclee on Archival Acid-Free Rag Paper
35” x 27” Image Unframed, 46 x 38" Framed
"This series of works are inspired by and employed through a modern appropriation of Norman Rockwell's Four Freedoms. Rockwell created them in response to FDR's famous speech in which he mentions Freedom of Speech, Freedom from Want, Freedom from Fear, and Freedom of Worship. Not only do all these apply to our lives today socially and culturally but also, they work nicely into my personal style of painting, which gleans from the WPA artists of the 1930s and 40s. I love the sincerity and solid craftsmanship in design with which great artists of the 40s, like Rockwell, created memorable and meaningful works for everyone to enjoy. I am using these classic means to create a modern version we can relate to today." Danny Galieote
A California native, Galieote began his art career in Disney animation studios. A top animator for films such as the Lion King and Tarzan as a character artist, Galieote honed his skill at hand drawing and the human figure. Well versed in art history, his influences include Renaissance masters such as Michelangelo, Rubens, and the Mannerist, Jacopo Pontormo, as well as American realist painter George Bellows and other AshCan artists. Incorporating whimsical elements with modern social concerns, Galieote imbues light-hearted imagery with deeper connotations, illuminating timeless truths of the dualities of human nature.

Danny Galieote
Danny Galieote juxtaposes the imagery and pop sensibility of postwar America with an air of surrealism, evoking a menacing, dark aura in his paintings and casting a shadow over the historical eras they depict. At the beginning of his career, Galieote worked full time at Disney while pursuing his painting practice on the side. He began pairing images of innocent midcentury Americana—a young couple enjoying Coca-Cola or women frolicking on a beach—with threatening sights from the same period, such as mushroom cloud explosions. Galieote uses a grid to map his photographic sources onto the canvas, resulting in technically precise compositions. Galieote’s unique style takes cues from the drama and technical prowess of Italian Renaissance masters and the New-World optimism of American painters like Paul Cadmus, George Bellows, Thomas Hart Benton and Grant Wood – wrapping it all up with a sinister twist of Rockwellesque humor. His work, though frequently featuring fashion and scenes from by-gone eras, does not concern itself with nostalgia; but rather with the pursuit of the universal, timeless theme of human nature. His paintings draw on elements all along this spectrum – suffusing them with an atmosphere at once dark and yet strangely sweet.
