About the author:
Born in 1953 in Livorno. As a young man, he follows his grandfather, a well-known Italian painter, getting to know 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 devotes himself to his painting instinct. Already in 1972, he has his first solo exhibition in Milan where his work is appreciated for the personality expressed in his vedutas. Numerous exhibitions follow throughout Italy, affirming him as an excellent figurative artist. On his many travels, he embraces and develops themes that are distant from our established concepts, while his artistic experience matures. Living in the USA and Sri Lanka in 1987, he finds an innovative approach that he incorporates into his painting achievements. In 1990, he was appointed secretary of the Labronico Group, one of the oldest art associations, which has had members such as Annigoni, Modigliani, and Nomellini throughout its history. He lives and works in Livorno, which dedicated an anthology exhibition to him at “Bottini dell’olio”. He has exhibited in numerous exhibitions in public and private galleries. In 2000, he was among the artists chosen to mark the millennium; in 2002, he exhibited in New York, and in 2003 in the Brussels Parliament.
