Danny Lane (né en 1955), artiste plasticien, sculpteur travaille à Londres depuis les années 1980. danny lane
Ses sculptures et son mobilier de tailles variables s’adaptent à l’intérieur comme à l’extérieur.
Lane suivi une formation de peintre. Mais c’est avec le dessin en 2 D et 3D qu’il exploite le mieux son art déterminé par la nécessité de repousser les limites du possible dans le verre, l'acier, le bois et la lumière.
Le travail de Lane, moderne et contemporain, simple et torturé, exploite la force du verre, empilé et fracturé, de l’acier tordu ou rouillé, de la fluidité des matériaux et des couleurs éclatantes.
Il utilise les qualités de réfraction de la lumière et de réflexion de ses matériaux pour combattre les attentes, engager le spectateur dans un dialogue physique et métaphysique. Sur une grande ou sur une petite échelle, les travaux de Lane redéfinissent l'espace architectural grâce à la manipulation de l'espace et de la lumière.
Le travail de Danny Lane est dans les musées, dans des collections privées et dans des entreprises du monde entier.
