I would offer you this question for your consideration. Is it possible for a human being (for you), to simply SEE, free from the accumulation of a thousand yesterdays? To see free from traditions, conclusions? And with that sense of the total...meet the immediate.” John Biangazzo was born in New York City in 1957, of Spanish and Italian descent. He is a self-taught artist that has the rare capacity to see and perceive the world both internally and externally. “It is the sole responsibility for each one of us to be a light to ourselves and in so d oing, discover what is authentic and unique”. Hence Biangazzo respectfully recognizes no idols and accepts no artistic authorities whatsoever. Since 1994 John has resided in Thailand and is currently based near Chiang Mai, and spends summers in beautiful Denver, Colorado. www.johnbiangazzo.com 76
