Filippo Rossato

I work in several fields of figurative and plastic arts (bronze and ceramic sculpture, painting and graphic). My laboratory is located in the heights of Camogli (Genova) and also in other centers of cooperation with others artists.

THE CRITICS
(with a note by Vittoria Coen, art historian, critics among the most successful in contemporary painting)

Imagination and freedom are two distinctive marks of Filippo Rossato’s deep love for color and matter, both in sculpture and painting. In my opinion it is a natural and extremely instinctive drive which characterizes the artist’s act of creation; even though it is supported by a technique and a general mastery of the medium.
Filippo Rossato would move in this way in every situation and environment, diving into color as into a dimension, an imaginary but real dimension, which imposes itself. Of course we can sense and somehow read traces and shadows of shapes in the bidimensional works, whereas the ceramic sculpture clearly reveal a reference to myth and to a “Jurassic” universe.
In the tangled images of his latest works signs come and go, directions multiply and are meant to be a continuous contradiction, drawn by a hand that is impatient to be everywhere, to explore a territory ...

Born in Milan in 1973, I attended the first Liceo Artistico, and then I move to Levante Ligure.
I've studied Scienza Dell’Educazione at Genova university, and many others advanced school (Albisola, Chiavari, The Linguistic Accademy of Genova, Brera-Castello Sforzesco di Milano).
