Carmine Santaniello
Carmine Santaniello’s art can be seen as Brut Neo-Expressionism with strong street art roots. Between abstraction and figuration, his artwork is highly expressive. Reminiscent of Basquiat, as shown in his Queer collage works. As an interdisciplinary queer artist based in New York, I have exhibited nationally and internationally with work appearing in numerous publications and collections in the US and Europe. Homosurrealism magazine, The Art of Man magazine USA, Mascular magazine UK, Boner magazine Germany, Character magazine France, Noisy Rain and Spunk magazines to name a few. My art is in the collections of The Library of Congress, the private collection of Charles Leslie as well as the permanent collection of the Leslie Lohman Museum of Art, New York City.
