Bjarne Melgaard : Rod Bianco

Amongst Melgaard’s fascinations are provocative and violent subcultures, deceit, and fictional narratives and personas. Neither an alter-ego nor avatar, Rod Bianco is Melgaard’s latest fictional projection. Super Normal is a confrontational celebration of Bianco’s life, travels, outpourings and memories, collated and presented by Melgaard and other artists. Photography, diaries, found images, a novel, and a new series of photorealistic paintings, are juxtaposed with Melgaard’s vigorous, expressionistic drawings and iconography.
