via della Civiltà Romana Rome Painting

In 1985, shortly after arriving in Rome, I visited the EUR district, remaining amazed by its metaphysical characteristics. Returning after almost 40 years, I tried to represent that first amazement of mine in my paintings. Metaphysics, which studies the fundamental essence of reality, produced a movement in painting that sought to go beyond its physical appearance. Metaphysics also influenced architecture between the 1920s and the Second World War, with rationalism and classicism, leaving a lasting impression and in Rome, there are many examples of urban landscapes that capture this atmosphere.
