Michelangelo is a celebrated visual artist and musician. He began exploring his passion for painting at just 12 years old, studying under the esteemed local Italian painter Franco Iannelli, where he honed various painting techniques. By the age of 15, he had already showcased his talent in his first solo exhibition.
In the 1980s, Michelangelo furthered his artistic education by studying architecture and graphic design in Pescara and Rome. In the early 1990s, he staged multiple exhibitions in Italy before relocating to Berlin. There, he found a vibrant artistic community in East Berlin, a city rich with creative energy shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall. This inspired environment allowed him to establish a studio and connect with fellow pioneering artists.
In late 1993, Michelangelo moved to Melbourne to advance his career in both painting and music. His artworks are featured in private collections across Australia, as well as in Cuba, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the USA. In addition to his visual art, Michelangelo is also a skilled musician who has played in various bands in Italy, Germany, and Australia, blending his creative passions into a cohesive artistic journey.
