Massimo Fontanini

Born in Milan in 1970, he graduated with a degree in graphic design and illustration at the Instituto Cova Milano and held then positions in the field of communication and advertising. Thanks to the meeting he had with the Master Vittorio Emanuele, he decided to attend his painting courses and after 7 years he developed his talent extraordinarily and managed to turn a raw creative force into conscious awareness.  From then on, he realized several group exhibitions where his talent was noticed and allowed him very soon to realize many solo exhibitions through Italy. Fontanini's artworks are appreciated by a large audience and his exhibitions have received dedicated coverage on some of the major newspapers, like “La repubblica", “Il Sole 24 Ore", Vanity Fair, Ansa, RAI Radiotelevisione Italiana (Italy’s national public broadcasting company)
