ALBERTO MORELLI
Alberto
Morelli - Untitled 1992
Self-taught painter and ephemeral performer.
Born at Castagneto Carducci (Leghorn), he lives in Rosignano Solvay.
His artistic activity starts in the early 60s with neofigurative works,
then he switches to informal, optical and abstract creations.
In 1992 he founds with Dino Castelvecchi and Ivano Vitali the Group
“A.R.F.” (Art Research Florence), whose main objective is the experimentation
with new materials.
In his works he uses above all iron, steel, aluminium, plexiglass, sand
and earth.
In 1995 he is among the founders of
“La Casa dell’Arte”: multimedia project for visual arts in Rosignano
Marittimo (Leghorn).
In 2003 joins “Zerotre – Movement for ephemeral art”. In his
performances he uses flame to colour, to
melt metals, to break glass; sometimes he melts metals with electrodes.
