ABOUT DAVID GARIBALDI AND GARIBALDI ARTS
At a time when most people his age are uncertain
what to do with their lives, David Garibaldi has a firm grasp on what to do with
his. The creativity, passion, and the maturity of his style are not often seen
in artists twice his age, and many are stunned by his youth.
Born in Los Angeles December 1982, Garibaldi
showed an interest in art and music from nearly the start, and doodling on
practically anything in sight. He also began playing the trumpet in the fourth
grade and continued throughout high school, where he attempted to juggle art
with his music. Garibaldi gained a new perspective and a motivation that
prepared him for challenges to come.
Throughout his senior year in high school, David
studied animation with a teacher who prepared a professional work environment
for his students. The artist would sometimes spend sixteen-hour days working to
finish projects. For his hard work, Garibaldi was featured on local and prime
time news programs, and in many publications. A highlight of his high school
career was the screening of one of his animated short films at Sacramento's IMAX
Theater.
Garibaldi eventually started dabbing in paints,
and was asked by a friend to paint live on stage during a hip-hop show. The
paintings took on a musical flavor, and David felt he was onto something. He
began painting regularly at nightclubs, surrounding himself with music and
defining his new style. His resume continues to grow with a performance art show
he calls “Rhythm and Hue“.
“Rhythm and Hue” is a unique and high energy show
by David Garibaldi. With a brush in each hand, he creates 6 foot tall portraits
in less than 6 minutes, of icons, celebrities, sports personalities, and special
honorees to carefully selected music. The artist does it all while entertaining,
and stunning audiences, from hundreds in a nightclub to millions on TV, and
everything in between.
“…I’m an artist and an entertainer first, but I
feel like I’m providing an experience for people. Something unique, different,
and an event they will never forget…” says Garibaldi. The world agrees in
amazement, seeing him and his “Rhythm and Hue” show featured on MTV, NBC, UPN,
WB, in addition to worldwide publication. Garibaldi has performed for
celebrities, pro athletes, CEO’s and many others who agree that Garibaldi‘s
talent is like no other. “.…His ability to entertain, his energy, and the actual
finished product (portrait) is incredible. I’ve never seen anything like Rhythm
and Hue before” says Linda Mamula, a Garibaldi fan.
Garibaldi currently resides in Sacramento
California, but his work is showing up all over the globe in galleries,
clothing, advertisement, promotional campaigns, posters and video games. His
work is featured in E.A. Sports video game NFL Street (2004), which has sold
millions around the world.
What Garibaldi can do with “Rhythm and Hue”, and
his fine art, will continue to take this artist to unimaginable heights.
