Antonio Iannicelli

Born in Naples in 1952, Iannicelli lives and works in Castelvoltumo. As a boy, he showed a great inclination for painting and he cultivated it with love, taking the heaven, the sea and the people of Naples, as his teachers. He has staged about twenty personal showings in Italy and abroad and has participated almost uninterruptedly in the highest National Art expositions.

Winning numerous awards and prizes, Iannicelli’s work is gaining admiration in Italy and beyond its national bounds into the United States and France. He excels, above all, in coastal Venetian views and landscapes, where he manages to render unusual aspects with expressive immediateness.

Stylistically, his works reveal influence of the Old Italian masters, but also portray his instinctive likeness to post-impressionists such as Cezanne. As a result, his works yield both classical subjects covered by the bold color schemes and lighting of a more modern era.
