Tano Festa Biography

Tano Festa (Rome 1938 – 1988) Brother of Francesco Lo Savio, he attended the Art Institute of Rome and graduated in photography in 1957. He trained on the example of C Twombly and gestural and informal painting.

It is a special bond that binds Capitolium Art to the city of Rome: our Roman headquarters is located in Mario Schifano's former studio, a place of great importance for the history of Italian art; Our experts will thus be able to personally and quickly evaluate the artist's works. His first public participation took place in 1959 together with Franco Angeli and G. Uncini, in a collective exhibition at the La Salita gallery in Rome, where, only in 1961, he held his first personal exhibition. Protagonist of the Roman pop school, he welcomed new dada solutions with formal rigor, proposing isolated monochrome objects for everyday use. Famous are the shutters, mirrors and windows, which became the support of his activity as a painter. Since 1963, Festa has also focused on the masters of the Italian tradition and the Renaissance, in particular Michelangelo of the Sistine Chapel and the Medici Chapels, interpreted as advertising images. He was invited to participate in the Rome Quadrennial in 1965. After a difficult period of lack of creativity and disappointing recognition from critics, he was invited to the Venice Biennale in 1980.
