Del Bianchi (Bernard Del Bianchi, born in Steyr in 1971 and based in Southern Styria) is a contemporary artist whose work combines painting, materiality and cultural depth in a clear, reduced visual language. Raised in Slovenia and resident in Austria since the 1990s, his practice draws on decades of experience, intuitive processes and a deep understanding of craft and composition. He primarily works in acrylic on canvas, often enriched with gold, silver or red metal leaf. Tactile surfaces, light and material enter into a direct dialogue. His unique works range from portraits and animals to statues and iconic landmarks. His longstanding work as a music producer, DJ and record-label owner also shapes his sense of rhythm, structure and emotional resonance.
