Gian Piero Gasparini, born in 1969, graduated in Illustration Techniques (Corso Superiore di Tecniche di Illustrazione) from the Istituto Marangoni in Milan, started off his artistic career specialising in hyperrealism, producing gigantic air-brush murals and working with some of Milan’s most prestigious firms of architects on designing various well-known entertainment facilities.
Up to the early 2000s, this eclectic, boundlessly energetic artist worked as creative director for a number of different firms, coordinating their brand image and ranging from graphic design to commercial art and advertising. He started his career as an independent artist in 2004 together with other young talents, at an exhibition organised by one of Milan’s oldest-established bookshops.
Since then his talent has been widely recognised both in Italy and abroad where he has had great success, taking part in numerous one-man shows and group exhibitions in various parts of the world.
