C'era una volta Giovanni Korallo
Yesterday, the day before yesterday, tomorrow?
cit. Alonso Quijano
Do not worry, that you will not see them any more for the whole time of your life
Who I am
Giovanni Korallo
Giovanni Korallo was born in Lecce in 1938, he attended the Institute of Art and the Academy of Fine in the same city and began his activity in 1960. In 1964 he joined a pop-neo-dada trend group and subsequently deals with visual poetry, from the "Gramma" Cultural Center, photography and teaching at the Liceo Artistico of his city.
My job
In the 1960s, Korallo devoted himself entirely to painting, doing solo exhibitions all over the world: "Italian Renaissence" (Dallas-USA 1987), "Steiemarksches Joanneum Museum" (Graz-Austria 1990), "Interior con señora" (Madrid and Bilbao -Spain 1992), "Cenando en casa del Sevillano" (Italian Cultural Institute - Madrid 1994), "Feira Internacional de Arte" (Nice 1997)..
My style
His is the painting of movement and action that began with Caravaggio, which describes a fast world that, while still pressing, has already passed. A floating world expression of modern culture.
The artist examines the sensations of everyday life (moments of fun, work, solitude or multitude where dancers meet)
