Federico Rizzo

I'm a contemporary Italian artist . My paintings exibit a masterful handling of light and shadows that often suggest deep human emotions. A subtle continuous search dominate my still life painting. The depiction of fruit and laid tables is inspired by seventeenth century still life painters such as Adriaen Coorte and the Italian painter Artemisia Gentileschi. Photographer and documentarist, I mutuated the art of observing and manipulating lights and shadows of the real world, in the art of painting.
