About Antonio Matorosa

 

Antonio Matorosa was born in Sao Paolo Brazil in 1965.

At the age of 18 He moved to Europe and settled and studied in Florence, the ancient Italian and European cultural capital, which he still thinks of as `home`.

 

In order to further enrich his experience and abilities he followed these studies with a year in Munich, working exclusively with water paint and then two years in Paris, dedicating his work to oil painting.

Today Matorosa lives and works in Israel.

 

Many of his works can be seen in galleries and private collections in many countries.
