Eva (2024)

Oil on Canvas

90x60cm

From the series "Ragazze dell'Europa" it is an encounter with the cosmopolitan image of the streets of central Italy and in itself of all the cities of Europe. The multiplicity of ethnicities that are united by a global modernity that unifies diversity as a norm.

From the series "Girls of Europe".

From the first meeting with

The Shepherdess (2020)

Oil on Canvas

100x80cm

Some works emerged from the first meeting with Sardegna. La Pastora is one of them, where the tradition of dress and customs will take center stage as a kind of latent memory.

From the first meeting with

Adolescence (2009)

Oil on canvas

130x100cm

The speed of the era of youth that shakes even from a distance in time.

Terpsicore (2008)

Oil on canvas

100x80cm

If dance has a soul this is Terpsichore.

The Scream

oil on canvas

100 x 80 cm

A second before madness, in the midst of the desperation of a doomed story...the scream. Violence causes that kind of armor against fear that makes the weak go from victims to...

I

The loose hair

oil on canvas

100 x 80 cm

Life is always more impressive than any work of art where life itself is reflected. A life story told in El Pelo Suelto that captures all the drama that a strong woman has experienced.

Peasant

oil on canvas

80 x 60 cm

The portrait must go beyond the face, penetrate the soul of the sitter and bring it out mixed with the soul of the painter.

Orchestra director

oil on canvas

100 x 80 cm

The movement extends the time of the painting and the painting itself sounds like a note in the air.

The Captain's dream

oil on canvas

100 x 67 cm

When man immerses himself in his dreams of reading, the faces of people from the past arrive around him.

The spinner

oil on canvas

60 x 50 cm

Traditions are the soul of people, and preserving them is keeping that soul alive. The path of weaving begins with the twisting of the thread and the hands dance in a flight that will conclude in a beauty of colors and filigrees...the fabric. The spinner is a tribute to these women who, in the past and even today, preserve the tradition of creating these wonders.

The screamer of Remedios

oil on canvas

100 x 67 cm

Legends constitute the memory of people. The screamer of remedies is perhaps the most beautiful and tragic of these legends in Remedios, an old town in the center of Cuba.

She grieves for her son's soul and walks the streets scaring away all those who did nothing to bring justice.

Cowbells

oil on canvas

50 x 40 cm

Once again traditions motivate the artist. Ginevra Floris is the daughter of a family that for 200 years has made bells for sheep. Today the movement in my painting sounds with the sounds of sheep in the field.

San Francisco

oil on canvas

100 x 80 cm

When we believe that the lives of these people were marked by hallucinations, we notice that the little bird also turns its head along with Francisco when they hear the voice of Jesus, birds do not have hallucinations, so it is true Jesus is coming!

"Painting came to me unexpectedly, melting inside me, replacing science, philosophy and sociology. In the early nineties I already owned it"

Through the soul

It is Golgota's first exhibition in Italy.

Upon arrival in the region of Tuscany in the province of Siena it was important to reconnect with all the past time. Attraverso was that reunion of a work made with the light of Tuscany but far from Italy. Now in the small town of Casole d'Elsa this meeting was taking place.

Galeria Belvedere, Casole d'Elsa July-August 2023.

Roots

They arise - Sardinia, October 21 - 22 of 2023.

"O esteemed Sardinia, give your heart for the people... with honor and respect I thank you from the bottom of my heart, I and all the Sardinian people."

(Godly)

Standing above the sea is the island of Sardegna.

I arrived there hand in hand with my wife and when I looked at its people, its nature, its mysteries, I couldn't help but love it like my own island.

Raíces was a journey through those mysteries, traditions and customs, a small tribute to so much love received.
