Angelo Ciancaglini

Chieti,1969
Painter
Scenographer

I live & work in Rome.
At the moment, my painting research is mainly focused
on the exploration of different urban landscapes.
Rome is my first choice, but I have also drawn inspiration
from the views of other cities that I have come to
know well due to frequent visits, such as London or
Berlin.
My aim is to put into these works my own view of these
places & my personal memories.
I ususally paint by spatula.

After finishing the secondary school of art (LiceoArtistico), I moved to London where I lived till1989.After returning to Italy I graduated, in 1994, at theArt Academy of Rome (Accademia delle Belle Arti) inScenography.After graduating I had many professionl experiencesboth in italy & abroad: I won the scholarshipErasmus project for Tenerife's Art Univerity & Ispecialised in engraving technique at the CentroGrafico La Recova of Santa Cruz.Since the beginning of the 90s I have been working asa scenographer: in theatres, for advertising eventssuch as the launch of new products for famous brands(Nike, Citroen, Sony Picture, Nastro Azzurro, Breil,Replay Jeans, 55DSL, Nissan, Seat).I also worked for musical events (Beat Park, AmoreFestivalIn Rome - the biggest new year's eve party in Europe,Ultrabeat Out Festival in Rome).I have been painting since the 90s, with a more intense production of works since 2001.
