I am essentially self-taught painter. I was born in Trieste on Aug. 24th, 1951, during the times when Italy was under the Allied Liberation Government. It was a free town, like the spirit of the artist, whose imagination and especially dreams never did leave him. However, Venice is definitely my fatherland, since it is on those islands where I consolidated my culture and profession, a golden atmosphere where I, as an artist found new colors, and where I lives and works now.
I was a business man obliged to leave my passion as an hobby. After a long phase where I tried different paint techniques around vision art, I feel the need to make me free by the influences, to develop my own creativity.
To catch out this conviction, I decided to attend the ateliers of two important venetian artists, Gianfranco Quaresemin and Alberto Candian, academic teachers of Emilio Vedova’s school, following the design and painting courses, female nude, but above all treasuring their teachings on the pictorial techniques and their expression’s formality. Since 2009 at the Cultural Association Piranesi I learned by Giancarlo Zaramella lessons of pictorial composition and critical analysis, fundamental in the informal art’s discovery, that it’s so far from the rigid and known ties, but connected to its pictorial feeling and impulsive decisions.
Since the beginning of 2005 I have been breaking away from all the others, to develop my own very unique approach to expression in painting.
The emotion lasts an instant. It’s a fast moment adapt to a dynamic life, articulated for a more and more narrow and intense times. It needs to unite indissolubly the instantaneousness of the emotion with the art work’s realization. To transfer my intense and personal feeling on the canvas and don’ lose anything. The action and fast painting is my preferred, that on the basis of my consolidated and renewed knowledges of the painting technique, succeed always to realize, with strong personality, works at tall emotional level. My artistic search, after having revisited the figurative painting, is currently applied to informal art. Study of plans, search of new colors’ combinations and the total composition of the art-work. Chromatic stains and their approaches.
Here the path is pleasurable but also difficult, since I am aware of the need to break away from his previous technical knowledge, and start playing with colors, something which has always fascinated me, to then arrive at the essence of things, or, to enter into things. I am not a show off when I intends to present a great deal, hoping only for my soul to open up freely, without cultural ties and pre established concepts of art. In this manner my imagination can consolidate in a new and original type of pictorial expression.
It’s difficult to describe my artistic vein with the images, much more with words. When I start to paint, I don’t know where I will go exactly, I have just a main topic. My feelings became more and more strong completing my work.
Painting makes me feel so happy and at the end I am fully satisfied. My thought goes directly and fluently to the canvas with an action painting. I am an Informal artist or Abstract Expressionist.
