About the Item
Atteone e Diana Oil Painting on Canvas Mythology Rome In Stock
Giovanni Tommasi Ferroni (1967, Rome) descended from an artistic Tuscan family. His grandfather, father, sister and uncle are all talented painters and sculptors and so he carries on the tradition of a family of artists that goes back many generations. As a little boy, he regularly hung about in the studio of his father, Riccardo Tommasi Ferroni, where he playfully learned how to paint. During the summer holidays his uncle, Marcello from Pietrasanta, taught him the art of drawing. As a result of this, he made his first painting at the age of sixteen. His career as a painter developed quickly after he finished high school in 1986 and started to work in his father’s studio. At that same time he studied Art History and Literature at the University of Rome ‘La Sapienza’; both still are a source of great inspiration in his paintings today. Ferroni, similarly to his ancestors, was educated in the classical, baroque tradition.
His paintings represent a world full of fantasy: monumental buildings, mythological or historical figures and events form the crucial subject matter in his work. While Ferroni's style and choice of subjects is influenced by the style of his ancestors, contemporary icons intrigue him as well, and so he adds modern elements to his very classical worlds. A synthesis that sometimes results in a slightly ironic, but always fantastic atmosphere. The contrast in his work, between image and time (anachronism), results in a magical realistic style.

Giovanni Tommasi Ferroni
Giovanni Tommasi Ferroni was born in Rome in 1967, from a Tuscan family of artists. He has shown a passion for drawing since early childhood, attending his father’s atelier and taking drawing classes from his uncle Marcello in summer at his sculpture studio in Pietrasanta. His first solo show took place in 1991 at Il Gabbiano Gallery, in Rome. In the same year, he attended the Chicago International Fair and took part in Le conchiglie (The Shells), an exhibition at the Lilia Leoni Gallery in Rome. In 1994, he joined the exhibition “Un Sogno che cambia il mondo” (A Dream that Changes the World), organized by the social affairs department of the Prime Minister’s Office. The Steltman galleries hosted Ferroni’s exhibitions in Amsterdam in 1997 and in New York in 1998. Shows were also held in 1999, 2000, 2002, 2004 and 2005 in Amsterdam. In 1999, a monograph was dedicated to Ferroni by the American critic Donald Kuspit.
In 2001, he took part in the exhibition Emozioni belliniane nella pittura contemporanea (Bellini emotions in contemporary painting) at the Sandro Parmeggiani Museum of Cento, near Ferrara. The same museum later hosted “Miti e Vanità, dipinti di Giovanni Tommasi Ferroni” (Myths and Vanity, paintings of Giovanni Tommasi Ferroni), an exhibition that coincided with the publication of a book on the painter written by Prof. Maria Censi. In 2009, he participated in “The great students of the Roman school of Riccardo Tommasi Ferroni” at the gallery San Marino, Arzilli palace, Republic of San Marino and in the exhibition “Francis and Clare of Assisi” at the ducal palace of Massa. In 2011, he was invited to the Venice Biennale to join two exhibitions, one in Venice (The shadow of the divine in contemporary art, artists Noto and elsewhere at Palazzo Grimani), the other in Rome (Italian Pavilion 150 years of Italian unity at Palazzo Venezia). He has taught art at the Roman Center of Liberal Arts University and at the Lorenzo de' Medici Institute of Florence. Giovanni Tommasi Ferroni currently lives and works in Rome and Pieve di Camaiore, Italy.
