About Nicola Samori

  • Biography

    Nicola Samori (1977-)

    Born in Forlì on May 13, 1977, he attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna, and has exhibited since 1998 both in Italy and abroad. He creates portraits using techniques of the Italian Baroque. Putting histocial figures in chiaorscuro on wood, canvas or copper plates, he then removes whole layers of paint to the point where facial expressions become obscured, thus opening the view toward underlying layers and the ground of the art work.

    He lives and works in Bagnacavallo and Trentino, Italy.
