Athos Faccincani was born in Peschiera del Garda, Italy in 1951. Best known for his colorful, neo-fauvist scenes of Italy he began to study painting at age 13 in the studio of Pio Semeghini. At the same time, to please his mother, he studied accounting with the goal of becoming a banker, but in 1967 he defied his parents and ran off to Venice where he enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts. There he apprenticed under Italian artists Marco Novati, Angelo Gamba and Fioravante Seibezzi (showing 500 of 1227 characters). |
