Peter di Gesu, currently residing in Halifax, Nova Scotia, was born in Los Angeles, California, and received an MFA degree from the San Francisco Art Institute.
Peter di Gesu exhibits in commercial galleries in Denver, Colorado, Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Halifax, Nova Scotia. He has exhibited in museum-type venues in California, Japan, and India, and his work is in permanent collections in the Oakland Art Museum and the Pasadena Art Museum, both in California, and the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia in Halifax. His paintings are held in various private collections and corporations in the United States and Canada.
“Peter di Gesu’s finely described landscapes seem to exist in their own realities, neither in the present nor the past, but suspended between waking and dreaming. They drift along the margins of memory. Their meanings are conjugated by the interaction of viewers who, by experiencing their painted surfaces, allow another reality to emerge somewhere beyond the picture plane and into the illusory space that is a metaphor of existence and thought.”
