Renzo Verdone (1939-2011) | Symbolist painter

Nato a Roma, giovanissimo lascia l'Italia e matura la sua preparazione artistica a stretto contatto con i gruppi sperimentali delle Gewerbeschule di Berna e di Zurigo, dove compie accurati studi di ricerca figurativa, scultura e nudo. Perviene ad un grado di sintesi in cui tensione spirituale e situazione umana si contrappongono dinamicamente in una visione che presenta palpiti di tenera umanità e sensazioni di raffinato ed impietoso verismo.
