Rhythm, Color, Culture, Energy;
These Four words describe the experience viewing the creations of
world renowned Artist David Garibaldi.
Born in Los Angeles in 1982,
Garibaldi began creating at a young age. It was not until high
school, after walking away from a life of graffiti in the streets,
that he turned his influences of hip hop culture into a positive
direction. Unfortunately by then, it was too late to make up lost
time in school, and he could not graduate. A season of hard times to
come could not shake the drive of this young artist from pursuing
his dreams.
In 2003, David Garibaldi began to
turn his illustrations on paper into paintings on canvas. Garibaldi
would paint live at urban jazz sessions, nightclubs, and hip hop
events for direct influence by the music, and he began to create a
buzz about his work along the way. In addition to David Garibaldi’s
urban jazz influenced paintings, he naturally created a live
performance art show called Rhythm and Hue.
