Statement
Bruzzone's work creates the lures of Desire in a sensual and conceptual way.
From the beginning, media and literary references to fashion and fetish appear in his multimedia installations. Quotes from American Psycho alongside photos of Kate Moss were connected to cables that guided us to intimate states of erotic, dystopian and techno fantasies.
Fantasy, memories, unconscious desire is material in the body and is embodied in art and now in Dino's pieces. According to Roland Barthes in Camera Lucida, citing Lacan, he defines the punctum as that which provokes the gaze, that which triggers the Aesopian drive.
Dino's pieces are that space of beauty, perfection, seduction and sensuality to which these new paintings lead us: pink, silky, sexy. Points whose specific chromatic perception reconstructs those memories of iconic goddesses.
Veronica, the dominatrix walking powerfully over the fascinated male gaze,
she exercising, emerging from an exuberant Splash, until ending in pure ecstasy of the senses.
All the artist's work follows the perfect itinerary of seduction, the delicate skin of the painting, the star dust of the make up, the magic, all the optical illusionism materializes in his models, those unforgettable dance atmospheres of Freedom, recreating the mythical Buenos Aires discos where music and light enveloped the bodies, his works quote Barbarella, Valentina de Crepax, Bergman, today it is Veronica the brunette, the unattainable, the intense in all her poses she in these paintings guides us to the epiphanies of adolescence and childhood where cinema and comics built the set of the idolized Body.
