Bottero Draws Over 200 Art Enthusiasts to Ann Norton Sculpture Garden's Opening Night


Daniel Bottero drew over 200 art enthusiasts for his opening night exhibit at the Ann Norton Sculture Gardens last night.  Paintings include Bottero’s featured “The Love of the Poet” series amongst other abstract works, which bring Bottero’s experiences and emotions to canvas using bold colors and dramatic images.  






The artist, a native of Buenos Aires, Argentina, graduated from the National School of Fine Arts, Buenos Aires.  Upon graduation, Bottero moved to Italy where he earned his Master’s Degree at the Academia Italiana di Belle Arti in Lucca, Italy and then moved to Paris where he resided from 1986 to 1990. Bottero moved to the U.S. in 1990 and has called the U.S. home ever since. Living and working between New York and Miami, Bottero has now opened a showroom in Palm Beach. 

Cynthia Palmieri, Executive Director of the Ann Norton Sculpture Garden says,
“Bottero works present us with the excitement and intensities of the artist and yet creates quiet moments within the painting, offering the viewer moments of reflection.”

Bottero’s modernist works are featured in the corporate collections of Citibank, Xerox, Avon, Merrill Lynch and JP Morgan Chase Bank and are a part of many private collections including those of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Dan Marino, Gloria and Emilio Estefan, Al Pacino, Steven Segal and Oscar de la Hoya. In addition, Bottero has exhibited at several famous museums throughout the world and several paintings have been featured at both Sotheby’s and Christie’s auction houses in New York.

The Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens, Inc. is a recognized 501 (c) (3) operating foundation established in 1977 by the prominent sculptor Ann Weaver Norton (1905-1982).  The gardens are conveniently located at 253 Barcelona Road, at the corner of Flagler Drive in West Palm Beach, FL.
