My name is Massimo Costantini and I am an Italian artist and art director. I was born in Milan in November 1961 and have lived and worked in Milan, Rome and London. I have always been drawing and painting, but I only started exhibiting in Italy and abroad in 2012. Over the years I have developed different techniques and cycles: from pop art to post-impressionism, from surrealism to abstract painting. I have participated in art residencies and international auctions, and I am present on the main art databases (Artprice, Arsvalue etc.). Parallel to my painting activity, I work as an art director for large-scale public art installations with private sponsors and public administrations, in Italy and abroad.
