Claudio Rolfi (1960) - Sera in volo

Claudio Rolfi, born in Genoa in 1960. From his early works one can notice the great charm that Italian art of the 20th century has been able to exert on him, with masters such as Casorati, Morandi, Carrà and de Chirico. In his forty-year artistic career there are more than seventy solo exhibitions and countless artistic events, including TV broadcasts dedicated entirely to him. The Maestro Rolfi's artistic work has been discussed by the major newspapers and by television and radio outlets. Among the most significant events is the great exhibition Centoeventigiorni held at Santa Maria degli Angeli in Rome in 2002, inaugurated in the presence of Mrs. Franca Ciampi and Walter Veltroni; the exhibition at the Dopmiziano Museum in Rome; a solo show at Mondadori in Milan; the exhibition at the Palazzo della Cultura in Reggio Calabria; and BAM Baveno Arte Maggiore presented by Vittorio Sgarbi. The Maestro's paintings have been used for about six years as set designs for the GEO program on Rai 3. His works are present in many Italian collections, in the United States, Japan, Canada and throughout the rest of Europe. The painting represents a hot air balloon, a recurring theme from the artist that for several years has been used for the set designs of GEO on Rai3. With this subject he expresses lightness and the natural metaphysical aspect of the balloons, to the point of dubbing them "the jellyfish of the air". The work comes with a certificate of Authenticity signed and stamped and shipped by FedEx. Oil painting and mixed media on a canvased panel.
