Born in Italy, Rome, Alex Romano began his career as a child, when his 7 years he received the 1st Prize for Children's Painting and participated in V International Exhibition of Children's Painting organized under the patronage of the Province of Rome in the famous Via Margutta, the most emblematic street in the heart of ancient Rome, chosen by artists from around the world goal. After finishing his studies, and with a desire to further expand his artistic horizons, Alex Romano traveled through Europe and Latin America soaking up all the cultural expressions of these countries before returning to his hometown and further training in artistic attending various courses conducted by the Accademia delle Belle Arti di Roma.
During his studies of bachelor in USA and Spain and later during college, Alex Romano used his free time to feed his artistic quest and fascinated by the force of the matter, he became interested in recycling. Alex Romano began, then, not only to use found materials as support for his works, but also to incorporate them into them, creating different textures and forms and developing not only a material recycling, but also a conceptual recycling, giving the waste a second opportunity.
His admiration for Informalism that developed in France and in the rest of Europe after the Second World War, and by the American Abstract Expressionism as by the artists: Karel Appel, Alberto Burri, Antoni Tapies, Georges Mathieu, Gorky, Willem de Kooning or Jean Paul Riopelle have determined a great artistic influence in his work without taking an ounce of originality from his pictorial personality. Alex Romano translates reality into images of suggestive strength that invite a fantastic itinerary through undefined spaces, discontinuous lines, abstract forms, full of colors and some grotesque elements.
Alex Romano painter guided by his intuition, always reluctant to execute any kind of preparatory study or sketch for his paintings, his work has made the game with matter and color, beyond the figurative anecdotes that may appear in his production, the true center of his work. In this case, it is his concern for chromatic rhythms, which convey a delicate lyricism, axis of his reflection.
