Giuseppe Muscio, 1955 | Hyperrealist painter

Italian painter Giuseppe Muscio was born in Orta Nova, a small town situated in the historical and cultural region of Apulia.

"I was fascinated by the majestic landscape around me and realised that I was born to be an artist and painter.

If I close my eyes, I still can smell the perfume of the rows of vines, the fragrance of the olives and the almonds.

I immediately began to reproduce what I could see onto drawing sheets, which my grandfather would give me. Soon, I moved to Milan with my family, leaving behind my roots and my love for the region. I was passionate about painting; I studied the painting’s techniques of the greatest painters of 16th, 17th and 18th centuries.

I also experimented with various painting techniques using scientific methods".
