About the Item
Daniela Gullotta - "Interior with Venus" (2024)
A profound meditation on classical beauty within domestic ruins, this extraordinary work by Daniela Gullotta juxtaposes the eternal goddess of love against the relentless passage of time. The composition reveals a dilapidated interior where Venus stands as a dark, solitary figure in the lower right—a sculptural presence bearing silent witness to abandonment and decay.
Gullotta's masterful mixed-media technique is revelatory here. She incorporates mesh and burlap directly into the surface, creating an intensely tactile landscape where golden ochres emerge through deteriorating plaster like fragments of fresco. The walls themselves become archaeological documents, their encrusted surfaces suggesting centuries of weathering and human occupation now faded to memory.
Through the shadowy doorway on the left, ghostly furniture silhouettes hint at former domestic life, while a small window above allows pale light to penetrate the gloom. The goddess—reduced from Olympian grandeur to modest household ornament—embodies the poignant distance between classical ideals and lived reality.
This is contemporary Italian painting at its most sophisticated: intellectually rich, materially innovative, and emotionally resonant. Gullotta brilliantly interrogates how we house beauty amid impermanence, creating a work that rewards sustained contemplation. A museum-quality piece for discerning collectors seeking art of genuine philosophical depth.

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.
