Bruno Del Bianco was born on 5 April 1944 in Vorno, a small town located in the hills between Lucca and Pisa in Tuscany, Italy from a butcher father and a fervent Catholic mother. In 1968, he moved to Florence, the city of cultural revolutions and historical cradle of Italian art. Immersed in the Florentine Renaissance, he was mainly inspired by Flemish painting, the philosophy and explosion of styles of early modern art all the way to the contemporary informal American pictorial style. His mediums ranged from pencils to markers, oils, tempera, chalk, inks, charcoals up to pure pigments with sand.

His mind was also nourished by the world of esotericism, Eastern philosophy, and Indian Buddhism. These were his guides on the path of spiritual growth and elevation.

His constant experimentation and artistic evolution mirror his desire to achieve a “Neo-Renaissance” as he himself affirmed. His “Journey” as an artist was dedicated to the path exploring within, which divides his work into 4 periods.
