LOUIS
DALOZZO
"The
Australian Landscape Specialist"
Reflecting the intense colours, defined contours and
unique atmosphere of the Australian outback, is the
essence of a Louis Dalozzo painting. An aura of space
and timeless beauty overwhelms the observer when peering
into one of Louis Dalozzo's landscapes.
Louis
was born in Italy and after studying accountancy
after school, he met and married his childhood sweetheart,
Lucette and moved to Brussels. " We were looking
for something quite different." Louis reflects,
adding, "Somewhere untouched". Leaving the
densely populated cities of Western Europe they travelled
to the Pacific island of New Caledonia where they spent
a few years in the French speaking capital Noumea, painting
as a pastime and holding exhibitions of the Island's
volcanic landscape. The travelling spirit still had
a grasp on them and it was not until they discovered
the "Great southern land" that they both
found exactly what they were looking for. Louis was
so taken
by the sheer expanse of the deserts, canyons, gorges
and rainforests it was in awe, that he made a life
changing
decision to focus on his childhood passion.
Louis
has been painting professionally for over 20 years
now and has exhibited works in many of our countries
state capitals and overseas in countries such as the
USA and French Polynesia. He is renowned for his unique
self-taught style, which accurately conveys the mood
and feel of the rugged outback. His contemporary landscape,
hard-edged, vibrant, with unparalleled visual perspective
have won him acclaim and notoriety by both corporate
and private collectors the world over. The landscape
of Louis Dalozzo brings a refreshingly new approach
to a subject matter widely used within this country.
He persists in exploring new avenues of visualization
in reference to composition and colour, which leaves
you absorbed and sometimes consumed by the vastness
of the panorama. "Few places on earth do we
find such stunning beauty," He says. For this is
the subject that continues to impact his contemporary
expression
in a way so singular that you can instantly recognize
a Louis Dalozzo at a single glance.
As
Louis contemplates life as artist he replies," How
lucky we are to live in the most beautiful country,
to paint our visions and live out our dreams..."
