Sergio Durante among the big artist of the last century 

9 April 2024

It is with immense pride and gratitude that I announce my inclusion in the prestigious 2024 Yearbook of Modern Art Artists. This esteemed publication, spanning 600 pages, showcases the masterpieces of renowned artists such as Chagall, De Chirico, Fontana, Gattuso, Mirò, Modigliani, Monet, Picasso, Schifano, Shimamoto, Warhol, and now, myself, Sergio Durante. To be featured alongside such titans of the art world is a humbling honor. Furthermore, I am deeply moved to have been granted the privilege of adorning the second cover page, a testament to the recognition of my artistic contributions. This recognition serves as both validation and inspiration, motivating me to continue pushing the boundaries of artistic expression and contributing to the rich tapestry of modern art.

My artistic creations are a fusion of sculpture and painting, crafted from a truly unique material: recycled carbon fibers. Utilizing my proprietary technology, I extract these carbon fibers from components once integral to airplanes or motorsport race cars. These fibers, with their rich history and intrinsic resilience, are repurposed to form intricate and captivating artworks that embody a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation.

Each piece I create is a testament to the synergy between advanced technology and inspired artistry. Through meticulous craftsmanship and a mastery of techniques, I transform these recycled fibers into captivating sculptures that evoke a sense of wonder and nostalgia. Handmade with care and precision, my artworks transcend their material origins to become powerful symbols of resilience, endurance, and creativity.

I like to envision that each carbon fiber carries with it a story—a tale of past triumphs, adrenaline-fueled races, or perhaps even daring military missions. In my artworks, these fibers find new life, imbuing each piece with a sense of depth and narrative that resonates with viewers on a profound level. From the sleek curves of a race car to the aerodynamic lines of a fighter jet, my creations celebrate the spirit of exploration, innovation, and human achievement.

Join me on a journey through time and space, where the echoes of the past mingle with visions of the future. Through my art, I invite you to experience the beauty, complexity, and boundless potential of recycled carbon fibers—the building blocks of a new artistic frontier.
