Può Contenere i vostri Cuori

Born in 1934 in Castel di Lama, province of Ascoli Piceno. Sculptor, painter, engraver and ceramist.

At a very young age, he emigrated to Venezuela where he found work in the oil industry. His first creative experiences date back to that time (1953). A restless spirit, attracted by the physical knowledge of the world, he delves into the phenomena of parapsychology linked to an aspect of his personality. He visited the U.S.A., Canada, Africa, the Orient, etc. He returned to Italy in the mid-1960s and devoted himself to sculpture (stone and wood) and painting.

In the meantime, he held rare exhibitions in the countries he visited, beyond Germany, Belgium and France. He returned to Italy for good at the end of the 1960s. In 1975, he opened his studio in Palazzo Malaspina where he founded the 'La Sfinge Malaspina' Association to promote cultural activities, which is still active today. For several years he kept away from exhibition activities, preferring to deepen his knowledge of engraving and chalcographic techniques and, with repeated forays into the field of medallistics, he intensified his pictorial and sculptural experimentation, producing a vast quantity of works. In '94 he began ceramics, and the same year he held a course in chalcography engraving and silk-screen printing at the Villaggio del Fanciullo in Ascoli Piceno, aimed at the disabled. In 1999 in his art studio in the U.S.A., with some friends, he started the Cultural Association 'Creative Italian Art'.

In 2001, in Castel di Lama and in the former tobacco factory, after careful restoration he founded and coordinated "Arte on" Museum of Contemporary Art and art workshop, promoting cultural activities and the local area, nationally and internationally, together with the management of professional training courses through information and multimedia technologies.
