| Biography: |
In his early 20's, Lorenzo approached the religious field of fine art. From assisting on scaffolding thru all the elaborate phases of fresco technique, Lorenzos Agony & Ecstasy stands for posterity on many ceilings and domes of Romanian Orthodox Cathedrals. He used the traditional old Byzantine style as well as the more modern western world influences, especially being fascinated by the glorious accomplishments of the artists of Italian Renaissance and Baroque.
Without following any particularly institutional fine art academic steps, Lorenzo kept on studying "The Classics" - from Greeks to Romans, from Italians to French and Dutch. The freedom of visiting the world most famous art museums was not a dream anymore. The opulence of Versailles and the incredible treasures of Louvre converged with Lorenzo's deeply affection toward most beloved "eternal city" Rome.
In 1986 Lorenzo moved from Rome - Italy, to United States. His highly elaborate background in painting and drawing has given him the strength to work his way up in artists society. Working with art consulting businesses, he successfully created numerous fine art commissions for corporate as well as private clients. From the collections of National Museum of Catholic Art in Rockefeller Center, New York, to corporate collections like Sheraton Hotels, Lorenzos work is greatly appreciated.
