Description

Original image captured in New York...Worked in Photoshop and Painter...Digital art is a general term for a range of artistic works and practices that use digital technology as an essential part of the creative and/or presentation process. Since the 1970s, various names have been used to describe the process including computer art and multimedia art, and digital art is itself placed under the larger umbrella term new media art.

After some initial resistance, the impact of digital technology has transformed activities such as painting, drawing, sculpture and music/sound art, while new forms, such as net art, digital installation art, and virtual reality, have become recognized artistic practices. More generally the term digital artist is used to describe an artist who makes use of digital technologies in the production of art. In an expanded sense, "digital art" is a term applied to contemporary art that uses the methods of mass production or digital media.

The techniques of digital art are used extensively by the mainstream media in advertisements, and by film-makers to produce special effects. Desktop publishing has had a huge impact on the publishing world, although that is more related to graphic design. Both digital and traditional artists use many sources of electronic information and programs to create their work. Given the parallels between visual and musical arts, it is possible that general acceptance of the value of digital art will progress in much the same way as the increased acceptance of electronically produced music over the last three decades.

Maestro Arturo Di Modica is one of the greatest living sculptors of the modern era. His stellar reputation has been carved out by decades of commitment to the craft, rigorous discipline and passionate dedication.

Proud of his Italian heritage, Maestro Arturo is an independent spirit, guided only by his pursuit of purity and truth through his art. Unconventional in his approach, his world-famous Charging Bull achieved overnight stardom after the artist dropped it off in front of the New York Stock Exchange, in violation of city permits. The sculpture rapidly became an urban legend and now, an international icon.

Maestro Arturo s pieces are known for their impeccable attention to detail. He sculpts abstract pieces and is also renowned for his magnificent beasts in bronze, stainless steel and marble. His ability to capture dynamism and movement creates majestic works of art, symbols of grace and energy. Poetry in motion. Maestro Arturo s masterpieces are also considered extremely lucky and believed to bring prosperity and success.

The artist lives between New York City and Sicily, where he is currently setting up an International School of Art. At 70, Maestro Arturo is still driven by an overwhelming passion for sculpting and strong belief in art as a medium to channel peace in the world.
