I know a girl who's like the sea Painting

Francesco Liggieri is a traditional, almost old-time, artist, but he feels comfortable with the fast and always changing contemporary time he lives in an he uses as nourishment for his work. In fact, his pictorial style seems to have been grown and got stronger together with him during his slow transition from a child to an adult, without any impatient acceleration, but with a natural constancy which is very rare to find in a young artist today. This natural approach and also this kind of stylistic evolution are supported by Francesco's inborn predisposition to consider art as a way to express himself, through the use of painting and colours, and also to get in touch with the world he lives in, since he was a child. From the moment he used his first piece of chalk to draw a white line on a blue scrap of fabric, Francesco Liggeri's been keeping on testing different types of media and supports, such as tempera, oil colours, drawing pencils, wood, wall, paper, canvas, and he has accomplished his artistic style also thanks to his studies at the School of Fine Arts in Venice. The debt to Pop and Street art is evident and it's the base of Francesco Liggieri's activity as an artist, however without hindering his genuine and personal technique founded on the ability to let the daily life and the exceptionality live together on the canvas. In fact, the reality taken from the newspapers, the movies and the internet is the main character of Francesco Liggieri's work, but he is able to transpose it on his canvas as a good opportunity to create a connection, playful and reflexive at the same time, to the audience. Choosing characters who live temporary states, such as the different ages, from the childhood on, and who are defined by a sort of unusual uniqueness, Francesco Liggieri makes familiarity and extraordinariness join up, without any unbalanced result. Anyone can identify himself with the child who holds a gun in Where we go now? Where we go now!?, or with the other child who holds a lollipop in My dream come!... Maybe Tomorrow, or with the young character in the middle of *****, or at least with the group of Campi di pop corn (where is Anna Frank?), but only that child is a victim of a terrible war, only that child will become pope, only that little girl has been Anna Frank.
