Mauro Maffezzoni

I was born in 1960 in Rovereto, Trento. I studied at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. I work in Milan and Cremona, for me art is absolute freedom, freedom to explore different spaces and styles. I work with my heart, my brain and my hands, I am also a ceramist and I love drawing very much because I consider drawing the basis of art, the beginning of a project. I make no difference between informal, abstract and figurative: for me they are the same thing. I paint mainly in acrylic but also in spray painting and oil on canvas. In the sculpture I prefer to model clay , in the drawing I use pencils. I consider myself a pop artist because by now all the world is pop.
