B. Zarro (1955 - ), born in 1955, is a neo-expressionist artist. After graduating from the School of Design he studied Architecture at University. A multifaceted artist, he chooses a modern language, preferring "the charm of the unfinished" that Picasso spoke of. His works can be found in the villas of Capri and Los Angeles, and in the most important hotels in the world. In the second half of the 1980s he made repeated trips to the Far East; he was fascinated by the minimalism of oriental art and the spirituality of sacred places. In 1999 he had considerable success with a solo exhibition at the Vittoriano museum complex in Rome, where he was included in a calendar of the great artists of the twentieth century together with Renoir, Chagall and Mirò. In 2003 he was invited by the Susanna Shoa gallery in Chelsea to exhibit his works at the International Art Expo in New York, the most important art fair on the American market. In 2005 he was present at OPEN 8 in Venice, International Exhibition of Sculptures and Installations with the participation of 44 famous artists, where he received the award for the best work for his installation “Trojan Horse”. In September 2009 at OPEN 12 he presented the "Post-consumerist Manifesto (Capitalism reconsidered - homage to Mario Schifano)" with an accusatory performance against the contemporary global economic system and society's excessive consumerism. He also received the Open Prize, the Special Prize at the 66th Venice International Film Festival. In 2010 he inaugurated the solo show “Genius against Genius - The call of painting” at the Vittoriano in Rome.
