What distinguishes painting from photography as a record of recognition is the artists' personal choice of notation of their observation and the arrangement of the marks with which they record it. I'm a painter who paint with and against photography. I love to paint the faces of the icons of the past century differing from the photographs partly at least because of the contemplative time put in by me, i live with these images and i made painting of what i love!bio:after graduating at the instituto europeo of design in milano, alberto zamboni devoted exclusively to painting, choosing a figurative way of expression, and a realistic and neoclassic style. His language approaches the reality of the photographic image, his desire being to express simply through the minimal elements of the image. The artist deftly looks into figures and faces, analyzes the human heart insides the human nature. His paintings are private and mental, based on an inner investigation, and always keeping an eye on the masters from the last. In fact, in his works allusions and strong tributes to historical icons easily recognizable. Alberto zamboni has shown his works in solo and collective exhibitions, both in italy and abroad. less
