The Art of Roberto Ferri
One of the most famous painters of today is a devout Caravaggio follower. His paintings are an echo of Baroque through actual artistic language.
Throughout the 15th century, the Renaissance recovered the artistic concepts of antiquity, and later the Baroque perfected them.
Centuries later, Roberto Ferri rescued the Baroque and mixed them with modernity. He uses symbolism and romanticism to dust them off: today, they are still valid as a means of artistic expression. In the 21st century, he opens a tunnel to the past and allows us to live a Millennial Baroque that serves as a tribute and, at the same time, expands the style to new frontiers.
Born in Taranto in 1978, Ferri studied at the Liceo Artistico Lisippo in the same city in 1996. It was a local art school where he began his relationship with painting.
Later he moved to Rome. There he began investigating and feeling attracted by the baroque artists, focusing some of his research works on the painting of the late sixteenth century.
