Matteo Massagrande

Italy, 1959

A native of Veneto, Matteo Massagrande is a painter and engraver with profound knowledge of the History of art, both old and contemporary.

He is interested in the study of early techniques of painting and engraving and the art of restoration.

He has made frequent trips around Europe and to other continents, which have often provided pretexts for developing cycles of paintings and major compositions.

He begins to show very young in 1973. Today, he has held over a hundred solo exhibitions in Italy and abroad. His works are found in many museums, churches and public and private collections.

Rejecting all “-isms” and passing trends, he has always been faithful to his own noble personal vision in painting. His language is a cultured synethesis of what is best in history and the most modern figurative research.
