Tullio Mesi Studio:Palermo(Italy) e-mail: .artist BIOGRAPHY: Tullio Mesi was born in Palermo in 1966, the city where he lives and works. A graduate in political science, worked as a consultant and lecturer in vocational training, but his humanistic education and passion for art, manifested from an early age, led to the decision to devote himself full time to painting. It was during a period of stay in Bologna in the late 90s, that after meeting and study of local painters, he began his artistic adventure. In 2005, in collaboration with the Province of Palermo, he had set up his first major exhibition, "Sphaera", which was a great success with audiences and critics. Tullio, who has identified an invaluable tool in vibrant color and turned on, in bold strokes and bold, adapted from the beloved masters of impressionism and expressionism before then, takes us on a fascinating dimension and restless, which can be seen in works as "September 11th", "Sphaera" and "the storm"; precisely this framework has been chosen as the cover of the book "Waves of Poetry" Literary Award "Sicily 2000", presented to the Politeama Theatre of Palermo in November 2006. The trend for the experimentalism of painting pushes the artist towards new horizons ranging from surrealism to abstract expressionism, and finally to a re-interpretation of his imagery in a pop-art, with works that appear as new windows on the world, where the reality opens up a world of emotions and inner life. Subsequent solo and group exhibitions showing this new phase of experimentation and research in the painting of Tullio, and find the best expression in the exhibition in Chicago (USA), in the prestigious setting of the Merchandise Mart, at the Italian Expo of 2011. The work "A New Dream", also the title of the exhibition is a tribute to the American dream of past and present and has been appreciated by the Italian Consul of the state of Illinois and required by the Italo-American Chamber of Commerce in Chicago. In 2012 Tullio has been invited and has organized an exhibition entitled "South", in the elegant and evocative exhibition space of the secret garden of the Marquis of Cava De Tirreni (Salerno), already home shortly before a major retrospective exhibition on the big Spanish artist Joan Mirò. Tullio Mesi was also chosen and inserted in the international catalogue of Modern Art (MDS), Edition 11 and 12, presented to the Chamber of Deputies of the Italian Parliament in November 2012.
