Germán Tessarolo was born in Venice, Italy, in 1945. At the age of three months, he emigrated to Buenos Aires, Argentina, with his family. His great-grandfather, Antonio Baggio, was a professor of drawing and sculpture at the Beaux Arts in Venice; his father, Aldo Armando Tessarolo, was a baritone and violinist; and his uncle, Germán Tessarolo Baggio, was a painter and publicist. Since he was a child, Tessarolo showed a great passion for painting and drawing, participating in several collective and individual exhibitions. In 1969, he decided to settle in Bogota, Colombia, where he developed his career as a painter, constantly traveling to Europe and the United States. In Colombia, Tessarolo is recognized for his talent and constant creativity, which has projected him from Bogota to countries such as the United States, France, Spain, Germany, Chile, Peru and Mexico, where he has exhibited successfully. In addition to being an outstanding painter, Germán Tessarolo is also a publicist. For him, advertising and art are deeply inspiring and creative activities. A publicist by day and painter by night, Tessarolo has worked with companies, associations and foundations in the development, launching and positioning of campaigns and brands. His goal has always been to make a difference, creating identity and a sense of belonging. Germán Tessarolo is one of the pioneers of art therapy in Colombia. For more than 25 years, through “Neuro Arte - Terapias de Motivación”, he has been conducting inspiring workshops with private and public entrepreneurs from different sectors of the industry, as well as with foundations and associations. His work encompasses an infinite number of themes, techniques and colors, always maintaining a coherence in style and brushstrokes. His paintings reflect the artist's emotions: joy, love, eroticism, travel, nostalgia, pain, mystery, transformation and beauty. To learn more about his work, visit: germantessarolo.com.
