He was a scholar of techniques from photography to computer art, and was among the initiators of the movement that, in the sixties and seventies – before the Trans-avant-garde -, was oriented towards a return to painting, along with conceptual currents.His beginnings are characterized by conceptual painting, use of figuration in strange and diverse contexts, contributing the exponents of the historical core of new figures of the 1970s to the affirmation of the movement. In his paintings, he reconstructs the vision of myth, art history and literature with a visionary gaze. The history of art and its iconography was the central element of his quest, an "Ante Litteram" preacher of citizenship, and did not adhere to the movement promulgated by Maurizio Calvesi and Enrico Crispolti to pursue the path outside of definitive regimes and groupings.
