Joseph Piscopia
The artist Joe Piscopia is an abstract artist and hold a BFA degree from The School of Visual Arts, NY. His direction had shifted through the years after graduating and working as an illustrator to now drawing and painting surreal colorful abstractions. Having discovered that creating these amorphous, organic and at times linear works were more pleasing and important than representational realism he made it his life practice to paint in this vain.
Along with a stint at working at The Metropolitan museum in the security department he always found looking at art that was unusually nonconformist he developed a particular way of forming art that is personal and important to produce.
He is a native New Yorker, and still lives and works in the neighborhood of Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
Painting in an abstract manner he creates art that is highly personal in form, whether working in shapes that are amorphous in nature or at times geometrical in design. He constructs these images through an extensive thought and sketching process where his paintings then become verifications and illuminations after the preparations and investigations of creation.
