Marc Angeli (1954 - ) is a Belgian artist who lives and works in Liège, Belgium. He graduated in Painting and Drawing at the Royale Académie des Beaux-Arts in Liège. He has Italian origins from his paternal grandfather and they manifest themselves in his works.
His works reveal an investigation into the conditions of painting as a process. In a long process, Angeli "treats" his pictorial media, i.e. the individual pieces of wood he finds, with various materials. Since the mid-1980s, Angeli has incorporated other natural materials alongside his wood substrates, including animal glue, oil, red wine, milk and pigments. The result is that each image is based on a unique and non-reproducible mixture of pigments that determines both the color and texture of the various layers. The reality of the materials and their processing is made visible in Angeli's paintings. This other reality is equal to the aesthetic reality of the image, which is perceived differently by each observer.
