Working out of Los Angeles and San Francisco, Anthony Campanale is an accomplished sculptor and painter who has been involved in many large scale public works.

 He has created works for the California Academy of Science  in Golden Gate Park with Dana Albany for the Pterosaur Exhibit,  creating the sculpture on site from reclaimed materials.

He has exhibited with the Exploratorium in San Francisco for their shows, Reconsidered Materials and 2nd Skin. He created a 25’ x 25’ self portrait created with twenty five 5’ x 5’ canvases that he displayed and subsequently destroyed by fire at The Burning Man Festival in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert.

For the pieces in his show, Urban Trophies, each piece was comprised of recycled bicycle parts. A portion of the proceeds were donated to Aids Lifecycle. For their grand opening, San Francisco’s Foreign Cinema commissioned Campanale to create a 17’ sculpture of Jesus to be flown in by helicopter to the restaurant. For North Beach’s The Black Cat, Anthony coordinated a team of graffiti artists including Toph One and Ray Stevens to create a mural of poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti’s poem “Not too Long after the Beginning of Time”. Many other prominent businesses and private collectors have commissioned work from Campanale.

His work has not always been drawn within strict legal guidelines. He neither confirms or denies that he was responsible for the installation of a Diving Board on the center span of the Golden Gate Bridge in December of 1998. He is purported to have ties to The Billboard Liberation Front, a whispering bolstered by the fact that his Presidential candidacy appeared in the form of a billboard suddenly appearing in the Financial District. His FBI file describes him as “an artist of minor importance”.
