“Biello
draws upon his experiences…transforming them into
vignettes that seem like updates of Federico Fellini.”
“Biello’s
work…provides new art experiences that are visceral,
stagey and flamboyant…the most valuable contribution
is his reintroduction of meaning as a clear ingredient
of artistic expression.”
