Gudberg Magazine: Artist Feature, Why / Why Not? Issue 8, Hamburg, Germany, Winter 2009
"Matt Mignanelli was born in 1983 in Rhode Island and now lives and works in New York as an exhibiting artist. He graduated with a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2005. Since then he has participated in an impressive number of exhibitions across the USA, Europe and Australia and was recently awarded first prize in both the Hawaii Publisher’s Association Award and the Society of Professional Journalism Award, his work having been featured in publications such as Dazed and Confused, Time Out and the New York Press to name but a few. In his short career Mignanelli has already gained prestige and respect from the art and design world, interviewed regularly as an inspirational, globally acclaimed artist by publications like IdeaFixa Magazine, Juxtapoz.com, Fecalface.com and RevolutionArt Magazine.
Mignanelli’s work draws inspiration from emotion, energy, pattern and light and his vivid palette is influenced by the neon nightscapes that populate his urban surroundings. His work displays skill, precision and sophistication of style and are highly aesthetic. There is a feel of the comic book about his pieces, a mix of joyful colour and pleasure with darkness, fear and foreboding; many portray big chunky shapes dripped on by blobs of colour, all juicy, liquid and dessert-like. His pieces are made up of super-smooth flat blocks of colour in acrylic, latex and ink that on closer inspection reveal the detailed brush-work of the artist. The modern imagery within the work, Mignanelli’s personal narratives, mixed with his traditional painterly approach creates an interesting visual juxtaposition."
