Description
Angelo Elefafante was born in 1952, near Naples, in Italy.
After a bachelor’s degree of Arts and Theatre, he starts to work in the field of graphic art and advertising in Italy and France. At the same time he paints large convases deeply influenced by surrealist Masters as Dalì, Ernst or Magritte.
In 1979 he permanently settles in Paris and he decorates many restaurants with frescos and “trompe-l’oeil” (he has mastery of varios techniques: from oil-paiting to watercolor and he is able to reproduce ancient styles of painting). As many artists he goes through a period of existentialist quest that leads him to take interest in oriental philosophys and Hatha-Yoga. After few months of practice he notices that not only his body feels fabulous but is touched in an emotional and spiritual way as well, so he decides to diffuse this powerfull discipline teaching it to the others.
