Time Regained
Salvatore Del Deo June 1st - July 13th 2024
LaMontagne Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition of works by Sal Del Deo, on view from June 1st to July 13th, 2024.
Del Deo, a pivotal figure in the Provincetown art community, has dedicated his life to fostering and shaping this influential art colony. Born to Italian immigrants who sought a better life in America, Del Deo's journey in art began early and has spanned over nine decades, marked by his unyielding passion and commitment to both his craft and his community.
The exhibition, "Time Regained," highlights Del Deo's work beyond the regional confines of Provincetown, positioning it within the broader context of contemporary American painting. Known for his profound storytelling through still lifes, figures, and allegories, Del Deo’s paintings offer a deep connection to the realm of ideas and an appetite to express his unique perception through paint. His influence extends beyond his canvases; as a founder of the Fine Arts Work Center and his recent efforts including the successful campaign to preserve Provincetown’s iconic Dune Shack community, Del Deo has been a mentor and guide to generations of artists.
