About the Artist

Born Guiseppe Dangelico in Bari, Italy on November 8, 1939, Pino Daeni began his studies at the city's Art Institute. He attended Milan's Academy of Brera in 1960 honing in on his talent for painting the human figure. During his two years at the academy, he was influenced by the the Pre-Raphaelites and Macchiaioli. His work was featured in numerous major exhibitions all over Italy and Europe from 1960 to 1979. Two of Italy's largest publisher's, Mondadori and Rizzoli, commissioned him to do book illustrations.

Despite his rising success and new opportunity, Pino felt restricted in Milan. Seeking complete artistic freedom brought him to the United States in 1979. He was sponsored by the Borghi Gallery, where he held many shows in New York and Massachusetts.

Moving to the United States would turn out to be a great challenge. His sponsorship barely supported enough for him to feed his family, troubles which were only heightened due to his limited English skills, and his only method of transportation was a bicycle. After seeking employment from many people, in February of 1980, "Zebra Books Publishers" gave him a job doing a book cover. The success of his illustrations was so great that he was able to network with many prominent publishers of romance novels.

His popularity blossomed within the literary community. Pino dedicated 13 years to illustrating book covers, but never lost his desire to return to fine art. His passion to create pieces that break free from outside restrictions fueled his passion to dedicate himself to fine art again, which he continued to do until he passed away in 2010.

Conservation Lands Foundation

I'm on the Board of the National Conservation Lands Foundation because it was started by my father, one of the great leaders of the American environmental protection movement. I support all my dad's fantastic work in conservation.

Many people don't know it but a lot of our greatest natural and scenic treasures are not protected within the National Park System. Millions of acres of our most treasured publicly owned lands are managed under a different system, the National Landscape Conservation System. The NCLF is the only organization in the country dedicated solely to conserving these 28 million acres These lands are composed of National Conservation Areas, National Monuments, Wilderness Areas, Wild and Scenic Rivers, and National Scenic and Historic Trails. The National Conservation Lands consist of the last places where you can experience the history of the American West. From the rivers which Lewis and Clark explored, to pioneer trails, to Native American sites, the heritage and beauty of these places are safeguarded for all of us to see.

Unfortunately, these lands are increasingly threatened by vandalism, looting, oil and gas drilling and irresponsible recreation. The Conservation Lands Foundation is working to protect, restore and expand the National Conservation Lands by:

  • Providing grants and trainings to local Partner groups throughout the nation who are working to safeguard the National Conservation Lands;
  • Working with Congress and the Bureau of Land Management to help shape the future of the National Conservation Lands; and
  • Promoting greater public awareness of, and appreciation for, the National Conservation Lands and the irreplaceable human and natural history contain therein.

This is a great effort and a great organization made up of mostly local heroes...people who give their time and energy to protect the special places in their own local communities.
