"Mary Jayne Kelly, Executive Director of the Cultural Council and I caught up for a while with Italian artist Ivo David in front of his colorful oil painting, Farmers Market - Vero Beach. David, whose work was chosen last year to represent the Hibiscus Festival enthused, “My art is an expression of color, of life, of things that make us feel comfortable. I’ve been an artist all my life. I live art, I breathe art, and my daddy and grandfather were artists.”
Ivo David is an Italian American painter and founder of "Fusionism '56" as described in his Manifesto of Fusionism. He creates impasto oil paintings of landscapes and the people inthem and religious paintings including a series devoted to The Divine Comedy with works depicting Dante's Inferno, Purgatory and Paradise. Many of the paintings and drawings of The Divine Comedy are in the permanent collection at the Museo Dantesco di Torre dè - Passeri. Casa di Dante, Museo Fortunato Bellonzi, Abruzzo, Italy
Ivo and his art have been featured in numerous publications including the prestigious Dante E San Francesco by Corrado Gizzi. For a complete Bibliography, click HERE.
In 2009 Ivo's painting of downtown Vero Beach was chosen as artwork for the 2009 Hibiscus Festival poster. He is also one of six local artists whose work is depicted on the downtown banners sponsored by Main Street Vero Beach.
