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 to 20th century.
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 appreciated for the personality expressed in his vedute. Numerous exhibitions across Italy follow, establishing him as an excellent figurative artist. On his many travels, he embraces and develops themes distant from our conventional perceptions, while maturing his artistic experience. Living in the USA and Sri Lanka in 1987, he finds an innovative approach introduced into his paintings. In 1990, he was appointed secretary of the Labronico Group, one of the oldest artistic associations, whose members have included Annigoni, Modigliani, and Nomellini throughout its history. He lives and works in Livorno, which dedicated an anthology exhibition to him at “Bottini dell’olio.” To date, he has exhibited in numerous public and private gallery exhibitions. In 2000, he was among the artists chosen to mark the millennium; in 2002 exhibited in New York; and in 2003 in the Brussels Parliament.
