Discover the contemporary work of Auriemma Alfonso

BiographyAlfonso Auriemma was born in Avellino, on March the 31st 1984. Since early age he was passionate with drawing and to push him, his grandmother asked him to paint a Madonna. He went then to buy oil paint and a small canvas. As a young boy he felt unsatisfied with his own work so he decided to destroy it but he kept the oil paint. Few years after he randomly found the colors in a box and so decided to try again with painting. He hadn’t a precise idea of what to paint, so he just started instinctively, finding that he liked the results. Since then he has been driven by an impulse to go on with drawing and painting and, despite the lack of academic knowledge in the field of the arts, he started his artistic career. During that period he also started the faculty of Mathematic, Physics and Natural Science in Florence (where he graduated in Industrial and Environmental Biotechnologies). In 2013 he receives a special mention for the art piece “The Capricious Queen” from the Gallery Rosso Cinabro (Rome) for the prize Visionarie VII. CV 2004, collettiva “Arte sotto le stelle”.
