About the Item
Daniela Gullotta - "Interno con Discobolo" (2024)
A hauntingly evocative meditation on classical beauty and domestic intimacy, this exquisite small-scale work by Italian artist Daniela Gullotta captures the poetic solitude of an interior space. At the composition's heart sits a miniature Discobolus sculpture—the iconic Greek athlete frozen mid-throw—positioned on a simple table within a shadowy room defined by stark architectural planes.
Gullotta's masterful handling of a muted palette—charcoal grays, soft creams, weathered blacks, and subtle ochre accents—creates an atmosphere of contemplative melancholy. Her distinctive painterly technique, with visible brushstrokes and deliberate surface erosion, suggests the passage of time itself, as if we're viewing this scene through layers of memory and patina.
The work brilliantly interrogates the relationship between high art and everyday life, between monumental antiquity and modest domestic scale. The framed opening on the left suggests depth and escape, while the sculptural figure remains eternally suspended in its moment of athletic grace, now relegated to decorative object in a forgotten corner.
At an intimate 20x20cm, this gem rewards close viewing and represents Gullotta's singular ability to imbue quiet scenes with profound psychological resonance. A sophisticated addition for discerning collectors of contemporary Italian painting.

A fascination with empty and abandoned spaces serves as the driving force behind Daniela Gullotta’s mixed-media paintings. Gullotta investigates the relationship between people and constructed environments, depicting dramatic exteriors and vast interiors that suggest a human presence without featuring any figures outright. Gullotta’s art-making process begins with a monochrome photograph, which she traces over and builds up using oil paint, acrylic, colored pencil, and charcoal to highlight geometric compositions. The end result is an architectural image that is mysterious and theatrical, yet grounded in reality. Favoring famous attractions in England, Italy, and Germany, such as the British Parliament and the Pantheon, Gullotta offers a new way of looking at the past. An artist of international caliber who has decided to entrust her return to her homeland to Almach Art Gallery in Milan, while maintaining connections with important galleries, such as Marlborough Fine Art in London and Galerie Koch in Hanover.
