Claudio Cintoli was born in Imola on December 15, 1935. The family soon moved to Recanati, where Cintoli spent his childhood. In 1955 he enrolled in the Faculty of Architecture at the Sapienza University of Rome, which he soon abandoned to undertake his studies as an artist at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. In 1958 he had his first solo show at the Palazzo Comunale in Recanati and in the same year Eugenio Battisti presented a solo show in Rome at the Galleria La Medusa. In the years that followed, he made numerous trips to Europe, and in particular to Germany and England, and in 1963 he made his first animated films, now lost. In 1965 he moved to New York, where he established a fruitful collaboration with Lindberg Productions, with which he made numerous animated films. Back in Rome in 1968, Cintoli presented his first performances at Fabio Sargentini's Galleria L'Attico. Thus are realized Knotting, Fixed Nail, Bouncing, Bouncing, Puntelliti and Colare colore[1]. In 1973 his alter-ego Marcanciel Rapprò was born with whom he would sign many of his works in the future. He died in 1978.
