Born and lives in Casalpusterlengo. With an innate talent for art, Roberto Scarioni elaborates an explosive kind of painting, made of matter and color. In his paintings, the fork, incorporated in the composition or evocated by it, is the unusual protagonist. This simple tool becomes an art medium. It spreads on canvas clusters of colors, leaving its imprint. Scarioni’s artistic path is signed by action, reflection, in particular in his monochrome paintings, and a renewed creative strength. For him the fork, incipit and key-feature, becomes the instrument for a perpetual renovation. In Scarioni’s view ,art is not only sculpture, painting and creativity, it is Nature itself. So even glaciers, falls, oceans, forests are works of art. He creates for the satisfaction of exhibiting, for scanning his audience’s reaction. Recent exhibitions of his paintings: Castell’Arquato, Rome, Naples, Bruges (Belgium) and Utrecht (Holland), London.
