Sergio Valle Duarte (born September 26, 1954), also known as Sergio Duarte, is a Brazilian multimedia artist and photographer.

Biography

Self-taught, he lives and works in São Paulo [1]. Between 1972 and 1974, he worked as an actor in television advertisements for Campari and Nestlé.

Due to the military dictatorship in Brazil, in 1976 he moved to London where he worked as assistant to Rex Features International Photographic Press Agency.

As freelance photographer, he followed the pop music groups[2] The Who, Tangerine Dream, Genesis, Deep Purple, ZZ Top. In 1977 Brazilian magazine Geração Pop (Editora Abril) features a series of pictures he captured in London of The Rolling Stones. Soon after, between Europe and South America, he collaborates with a range of magazines, Claudia, Playboy, Status, Vogue, Sony Style (1978- 1990). Also within those years he joins Getty Images image bank and he is featured in photography art magazines[3] Collector’s Photography, Zoom France, Zoom Italy, Newlook France, Newlook U.S.A, Newlook Japan.

As Multimedia artist, since 1970, Duarte evolved his work adding new technologies and techniques with digital images and electrophotography[4], conceptualizing artistically the DNA. To his portraits he sewings strands of hair of the models to allow them a possible future cloning [5]. The model Gianne Albertoni is a part of the series that is featured in the permanent collection of museums in Europe and South America. The series is denominated by the artist as "Eletrografias e Fotografias com Fios de Cabelo para Futura Clonagem" (Electrophotographs and Photographs with Human Hair for Future Cloning) [6].

During the 80’s, he befriends the Italian artist and philosopher Joseph Pace, founder in Paris of Filtranisme, a neo-existential philosophical and artistic current, joining, in 1990, the enlarged “filtranistes” group[7].

Duarte is inspired by the surrealist tradition and the originality of his work resides in the fantastic colors and in the richness of details that he uses[8]. Irreverent, but never dramatic, with a playful irony, Duarte’s works are constantly moving, dancing, flying, stretching, as if they are to expand out of the frame[9].

He authenticates his works with a thumbprint.

Sergio Valle Duarte focuses his personal expression interpreting freely sacred and profane themes. Since 2005, he collaborates as curator for Brazil for the Florence Biennale and for the Padua Art Fair.
