Kates Playground O-face

A CAMEO ART

Giovanni Garozzo Born in Catania, its history began at age eleven, when he went to take the boy in a ceramics factory: he discovered the matter, the ovens, the colors. It was the revelation of what he should do. In 1960 he moved to Genoa, and there he attended the Academy of Fine Arts Ligustica After finishing his studies in 1964 was in Paris where he studied and worked until 1973. The international openings were very helpful to the maturation of the Mediterranean and "Genoa" Garozzo, as we have seen over the years of the study opened in Zurich from 1980 to 2000, and frequent exhibitions in that city. In the city continues its current activities. Since 2001 he is President of the Engravers Liguria. Between 1965 and 1966 got the first confirmation of its value as an artist, with the Milanese Diomira Prize, the Prize for graphics Imperia and the second prize in San Fedele.
