Since ever passionate about art Federico Grazzini started drawing and painting in his
young age observing the works of his father who loved to paint as a hobby. The first
source of inspiration was the Metaphysics of De Chirico and Savinio and the Surrealism
of Dali 'and Magritte; afterwards he studied and deepened all the most important avantgardes
of the twentieth century. The main technique is oil on canvas and sometimes
wood, cardboard and more. His works are representative of real or imaginary
landscapes, figures, personalized architectural elements with references to history,
mythology and sometimes with a pinch of enigma. The metaphysical reference is present
in many of his works where the order and the compositional clearness define the
stylized physiognomy and the clear outlines of the objects represented, be they
mannequins, sculptures, architectural elements and showcases.
