Elio Ferrara was born in Naples in 1945, he attended the Academy of Fine Arts and then worked as a set designer at the San Carlo theater.
In the meantime, he continues his activity as a painter which he has practiced since 1960 by adhering to the current of the new figuration, to later turn his attention to the traditions and customs of his city, thus describing, with figurative language, the customs.
His pictorial production is known worldwide, he has a good market in America, Germany, France, Brazil; it is also present in many public and private collections, embassies, art galleries, in collections of famous artists, politicians and well-known professionals.
Elio Ferrara's works are still remembered today, in Italy and in various parts of the world; but where he was most appreciated, it was in his beloved France, where he lived and painted for years; Nice and Paris, in this context he has produced subjects of Parisian inspiration which he realizes with powerful pictorial technique; this is how flea markets, outdoor bars, bistros, crowded boulevards and nostalgic faces of local men and women are born.
Elio Ferrara is also an appreciated orientalist, he lived for a short period in Cairo; there, struck by the local color, he described its customs and traditions. less
