About Umberto Pettinicchio
Umberto Pettinicchio was born in a town called Torremaggiore, Italy. Later, he moved to the city of Milan. There, he studied art at a famous school called the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera. This is a special art academy. He had his very first art show in 1969.
His Artistic Style
When Umberto Pettinicchio first started painting, his art was in the expressionist style. This means his paintings showed strong feelings and emotions. Over time, his art changed. It became more abstract. Abstract art uses shapes, colors, and lines to create a feeling or idea, rather than showing things exactly as they look.
One of his important paintings is called The Death of the Bull. He created this painting in 1981. Today, you can see this artwork in a museum in Spain. It is kept at the Museo de Arte Moderno y Contemporáneo de Santander y Cantabria.
