I’m known for the characters that appear in my work

I have some longtime favorite characters that you’ll find in my work like Mr. Bunny and of course my old buddy Luis The Rat. I also have many meaningful characters that take on people I know, people I’ve met or encountered over the years.

“The characters, objects, and ideas that inhabit Vito Bonanno’s work act and interact in striking ways. Caught within the grids and map-like structures he imagines, they are often in a struggle between multiple worlds.”

I began a new series of work called ‘Life Interrupted’

I recently started a new series called Life Interrupted which began with the creation of a painting I titled, ‘Pizza Interrupted‘. The piece is 48″H x 36″W made with mixed medium including oil paint, india ink, and oil paint pen. It is the first in this series with more to come!

Pizza Interrupted is like a documentary on canvas, about how a sudden abrupt event can change life as we know it. It outlines the flood of emotions and feelings of helplessness and fragmentation, while the use of vibrant colors can still bring a smile to our heart in the face of uncertainty and difficulty, reminding us of the power, resilience and always hopeful spirit of humanity.

Making New Art Documenting My Dislike Of The CoronaVirus

Hello friends and collectors, I’m making beautiful art in my studio with my new little friend Angel. I started on a few paintings that are documenting my dislike of the coronavirus.

In My Art Studio Working on a New Series ‘Dreams & Reminiscing’

I’m always in the studio working on my new series, ‘Dreams & Reminiscing‘, it’s been a while since I’ve worked on a new series of art, but I’m feeling inspired and painting everyday creating a whole new collection of work.

Photos of my art purchased by Amazon for one of their corporate buildings in Seattle

I am excited to share photos of my original art pieces that were recently acquired by a new corporate client, the one and only Amazon! They have made a purchase of 6 of my original art pieces for one of their corporate buildings in Seattle, Washington. The artwork was recently installed!

None of this would be possible without my relationship with ArtLifting, and I want to send a big THANK YOU to everyone there for these tremendous opportunities and their dedication to myself and the other artists they represent. I was introduced to this incredible organization through The Art of Autism — Artlifting is a very special non-profit whose mission is to empower individuals living with disabilities through the celebration and sale of their artwork.

Working on a Brand New Series in the Studio, Large Scale Pieces in Progress

I’m always in my studio working on new paintings. I have a lot of new pieces in progress, I’m working on a large scale series, where I start with a layer of India ink, then I layer over with acrylics and I’m considering to even add an oil paint overlay.

If you could take a look inside everything I am, mind, body and soul, you would see the images and feel the emotions that I put onto the canvas. My art is a true example of who I was and what I was feeling during the days any one piece was created. Those factors determine the images and colors that are used and is why many of my pieces are multi-layered, because they resemble the multi-layered, chaotic thought process of images and thoughts that call my mind their home.

My mind is a place where images, thoughts and words float around in a bumper-car like world, crashing and speeding in all directions. In wanting to clear my head sometimes of all this noise, I get some relief by taking these images and feelings and putting them down onto the canvas. Over the months of working on a series of works, this process gets repeated and layers are added over layers, sometimes obliterating the entire drawing underneath, other times allowing some of the under drawings to peak through.

Recent Corporate Acquisitions of my Artwork by Amazon

Hello friends and collectors, I am very excited to announce that several of my original art pieces have been acquired by a new corporate client, the one and only Amazon! They have made a purchase of 6 of my original art pieces for one of their corporate buildings in Seattle, Washington. The art will be installed this fall, and I hope to have photos I can share with you once the installation is complete. Other corporate clients that have purchased my artwork include The Hartford NC, CBRE Nashville and City Block. None of this would be possible without my relationship with ArtLifting, and I want to send a big THANK YOU to everyone there for these tremendous opportunities and their dedication to myself and the other artists they represent.

‘King Kong’, 2014 Obsessions & Meditations series.
Aerosol, acrylic, craypas, paint marker, archival glitter on canvas, 53.5“H x 63.5”W

 

King Kong pictured above is one of the handful of my artworks purchased by Amazon. Prints can be purchased directly from ArtLifting, they are produced on demand on either mounted wrapped canvas or giclee fine art paper in a variety of sizes here in the United States. High-quality print reproductions of my work can be purchased for your home or office. “From the 2014 Obsessions & Meditation Series, King Kong is a small part of the story of the series where the artist, who is autistic, tries to expel from his brain the constant barrage of images and thoughts that fight to be the dominant. The images, words and emotions on the canvas derive their life from either obsessions the artists struggles with, or the images and memories he uses to meditate on in order to bring order to the feeling of chaos and helplessness he feels dealing with the day to day life of living on the spectrum. The name, King Kong, hails back to a happy time when the artist was young and visited the King Kong ride at Universal Studios in FL. The graffiti that decorated the faux subway of the ride you passed by as you waited in line made an impression on him, and over 20 years later found itself with a new life on this canvas.”

‘Traffic Lights Plague Trolley Square’, 2015 Anxiety & Dreams series.
Spray paint, acrylic, paint stick on canvas, 46″H x 46″W x 1.5″D

 

Traffic Lights Plague Trolley Square is another piece purchased by Amazon. “From the Anxiety and Dreams series, the artist is autistic and struggles with typical images and happenings of daily life becoming obsessions that turn to anxiety. Trolley Square housed his studio, but graffiti got painted on the back of the building that slowly overtime caused anxiety, mostly because it reminded the artist that his disability prevented him from being independent enough to do his own tagging and youthful things. In his dreams, or on the canvas, he can find a feeling of control over these truths of things he missed out on in the past, or future. His mind has gone back to teenage years, of bands of that time. Bold images of traffic lights and toilets are there to protect him from the emotional upheaval he can feel when he thinks too hard about life.”

The emotional & social challenges of living with autism, placing my innermost feelings onto canvas

Internationally recognized artist Vito Bonanno taps into the daily emotional and social challenges of living with autism, placing his innermost feelings onto canvas. The New England-based artists’ work is image and concept driven and embedded in his personal philosophy. His art contains the essence of his life, feelings, thoughts, and dreams, coupled around objects or topics that “get stuck in his head”, including traffic lights, grids, ceiling fans, graffiti and pop culture.

’17 Girls on a Train’

 

In January 2012, Bonanno unveiled his first Solo Exhibition, Unfiltered V: Vito Bonanno Riding with the Train Girls, at Akus Gallery at Eastern CT State University which included works on paper, canvas, video pieces, a student-artist interactive mural project, and installations. Akus Gallery Director, Elizabeth Peterson stated, “The characters, objects, and ideas that inhabit Vito Bonanno’s work act and interact in striking ways. Caught within the grids and map-like structures he imagines, they are often in a struggle between multiple worlds. He has found a way to tap in the intensity of focus and insight afforded him through autism to unleash a formidable creative power and vision.”

Vito was chosen to participate in the prestigious global art competition Art Olympia in Tokyo, Japan 2015. His painting ‘Skatepark Krusty’ from Obsessions & Meditations was a First Round Winner. Bonanno was also chosen to feature his work in Art for Autism at Pan American Art Projects Gallery in the Wynwood Arts District of Miami, Florida in July 2015. He has been featured and spotlighted on Saatchi Art homepage twice in a row since July 2015, hand-picked by Saatchi Chief Curator Rebecca Wilson. In 2015 Bonanno was one of 16 artists in the United States selected for a prestigious exhibition of previous awardees from the VSA Emerging Artists Program in the Kennedy Center’s Hall of Nations with sponsorship from Volkswagen Group of America. This exhibition was showcased as part of the celebrations for the 25th Anniversary of the ADA and 40th Anniversary of VSA, and included the work of select artists who represented the past 13 years of the VSA Emerging Young Artist Program; Curated by Stephanie Moore, ‘Daffy Goes to Waterbury with a Ninja Turtle’ and ‘SECR Toilet’ were chosen to be part of the exhibition.

Bonanno was invited to participate in a group mural project in New Haven, Connecticut at Yale University in June 2018 as part of a public art initiative. Vito is also an artist with ArtLifting since early 2018, which is a non-for-profit art organization that empowers artists living with disabilities through the celebration and sale of their artwork.

vito bonanno love art gallery and studio south norfolk ct

LOVE ART Gallery Exhibition in 2016, the gallery is located at 132 Washington Street in South Norwalk, Connecticut 06854.

 

Bonanno was diagnosed with PDD/Autism just before his 4th birthday. Because he was language delayed, his parents and teachers developed strategies that tapped into his high visual acuity, utilizing storyboard styles to relay academic and social information. He was also encouraged to draw in storyboard format to express his feelings. The storyboard grid remains prominent in his work and studio preparation today and is a poignant reminder of a boy who was trapped in his own mind.

New Artworks Available & Insights Into My Journals Which Later Translate Into My Art

For years I’ve been writing and drawing in journals everyday, often multiple times a day. I have hundreds of full journals! Using a journal was a way of self-managing my stresses and fears. I still write in a journal daily, but my overall day to day life since I moved to the shoreline is more fulfilling, I have busier and more productive days, so my journal entries are more for pleasure then therapy. Much of the words and imagery found in my journals make their way onto my art.

I’ve been working on a lot of new art in my new studio. I like to work on many pieces at one time, adding layers over layers and images over images. Since 2017, I’ve been represented by Artlifting. Besides being a wonderful organization, they also offer prints of original works they represent for their artists. Most exciting, I was recently informed by Artlifting that they have secured the sale of 6 of my original art pieces to a well known international corporate client. This client is renovating their headquarters in Seattle, Washington, and each floor was assigned a “theme”. One of the themes was “Industrial”, and my work was the perfect fit. I’m very excited and will be able to provide more information about this notable moment in my art career to you all soon. Please stay tuned. Until then, “Be Safe and wish for the buildings!”

My New Art Studio In Old Saybrook Connecticut & Lots Of New Artworks Available!

I’ve been working on lots of new art since I moved into my new studio in Old Saybrook, CT. It’s great to be setting up my new studio, I had a chance to unpack some artwork that I did not have a chance to finish before I moved, including these two pieces below. All the paint I used for these is gone so I might just get a few new colors and have a go at it!

My studio would not be mine if it did not have my favorite traffic lights. All these lights were given to me from people who understood my passion and life long love of traffic lights. The first was a gift from a police officer who I met in summer camp when I was 14 years old! That started it all!

A necessity for my inspiration and also to help keep me calm is my toilet collection (many gifts from friends who understood my love and obsession with them, it has to do with shape and circles), and of course my Ninja Turtles! I have quite the collection of Ninja Turtles. Working on making a place for a bunch of them in the new studio.
