About the author:
Born in 1953 in Livorno. As a young man, he follows his grandfather, a well-known Italian painter, becoming acquainted with the period of Italian painting at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
In 1968, he enrolls in the school of applied arts (Liceo Artistico) and dedicates himself to his painting instinct. By 1972, he has his first solo exhibition in Milan, where his work is valued for the personality expressed in his vedute. Numerous exhibitions follow throughout Italy, establishing him as a distinguished figurative artist. During his many travels, he embraces and develops themes distant from our established understandings, while his artistic experience matures. While living in the USA and Sri Lanka in 1987, he discovers an innovative approach that he brings into his paintings. In 1990, he was appointed secretary of the Labronico Group, one of the oldest artist associations, which has had members such as Annigoni, Modigliani, and Nomellini in its history. He lives and works in Livorno, which dedicated an anthological exhibition to him at “Bottini dell’olio”. To date, he has exhibited in numerous exhibitions in public and private galleries. In 2000, he was among the artists selected for the millennium celebration, exhibited in New York in 2002, and in the Brussels Parliament in 2003.
