“Attempt:Out of alignment (gray scale)”

Daniel Murgel's poetry and language explore the contemporary perspective around one of the most important values: habitat. Through his spontaneous anthropological and urban research, he draws sketches and projects, which are often built on a human scale.

Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), Daniel Murgel has had solo exhibitions at the Banco do Nordeste Cultural Center in Fortaleza, Sousa and Juazeiro do Norte; at the Joaquim Nabuco Foundation in Recife; Espacio El Dorado in Bogotá; Banco do Brasil Cultural Center in Rio de Janeiro; and in private galleries in Rio, Belo Horizonte and São Paulo.

Among the group exhibitions, the following stand out: "Distant Worlds/Nearby Places" (Fortaleza Museum of Contemporary Art); "Home, City, World" (Helio Oiticica Municipal Art Center, in Rio de Janeiro); "Boiling Point" (PSM gallery in Berlin); "Love and Hate for Lygia Clarck" (Zacheta National Gallery of Art in Warsaw); "Experimenting Spaces 2" (Brazilian House Museum in São Paulo); "Mirrors: on the Path to Wonders" (Haroldo Conti Cultural Center, in Buenos Aires); and "New Acquisitions by Gilberto Chateaubriand" (MAM-RJ).

He also participated in the Rumos de Artes Visuais program in 2011 and Bolsa Pampulha at the Pampulha Art Museum (BH) in 2010. He was awarded at the 64th Salão de Abril and the IPHAN Art and Heritage Merit Award.

His works are present in public and private collections, notably the Gilberto Chateaubriand Collection, Banco do Nordeste, Museu do Bispo do Rosário and Museu da Cidade de São Paulo.
