Born in Bergamo in 1951, he lives and works in Milan. With a degree in Modern Literature and a degree from the Brera Academy, he studied nineteenth-century art with particular attention. He practices figurative painting with a classical nature, but with modern and sometimes disturbing content.
Writers about him: Allesandro Quasimodo, Teodosio Martucci, Gianni Pré, Marcello Colusso, Cristina Pianta, Giorgio Falossi, Gianna Melloni. The publisher Prometheus dedicated an extensive monograph to him (1994) with a preamble by Prof. Francesco Solitario.
