Danilo Stojanović is not just any painter.

Danilo Stojanović is in fact a young artist who demonstrates a complex stylistic evolution worthy of a painter with decades of experience, manifesting a strong technical mastery through a coherent and elaborate thematic development. His pictorial poetics, rich in dichotomies, has its roots in artistic currents with antagonistic values, translating them into images that possess an original, authentic and harmonious identity. 

Istrian by birth but Venetian by adoption, the artist encloses in his canvases, generally small or medium- sized, the constant, but never revealed, presence of water. It is a presence expressed not only through a cold palette of blues, greens and greys but above all through the creation of an atmosphere that is perceived as fluid and changeable, within which the objects represented seem to float as if incorporated in a viscous substance. It is precisely thanks to the aquatic element that the declared influence of Italian Metaphysics, with its mysterious and enigmatic settings, is applied to scenarios that completely lose their geometric perspective: perspective rigour becomes superfluous within a dimension in which the spatial composition is based entirely on the positioning and relationship between the extraordinary objects that populate it.
