Daniel VERSTRAETE, sculpteur français ( né en 1945) est un artiste autodidacte, qui pratique la sculpture en taille directe exclusivement sur des blocs de marbre de l’Ile de Paros.
Il crée des formes à la limite entre l’abstraction et le figuratif qui composent un étrange bestiaire imaginaire puissant et tire de certains de ces blocs de marbre des bronzes à la cire perdue dont les patines exaltent le travail de la matière.
Il a participé à de très nombreuses expositions de sculptures en France, Luxembourg, Grèce et Monaco et ses œuvres sont présentes dans des collections privées en France, Espagne, Luxembourg, Suisse et Grèce.
Il est président d'un collectif d’artistes Français, « l'Atelier du Lundi », créé à Grasse il y a près de 40 ans.
