Maurizio Pometti: The Sicilian Artist Exhibits at the Moro with LeoGalleries

We are thrilled to announce that the works of Sicilian artist Maurizio Pometti have been chosen by LeoGalleries for a prestigious temporary exhibition in Monza Ristorante Il Moro. This exhibition represents a unique opportunity for art and cooking lovers to immerse themselves in the creative universe of one of the most promising painters of his generation.

Who is Maurizio Pometti?

Maurizio Pometti was born in 1987 in Catania, the city where he still lives and works. After graduating in Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Catania, he developed a distinctive style that mixes memory and present in a fascinating and engaging synthesis. His painting is a place of memory, reconstructed through ancient photographs in which he places an illusory present. Sometimes, the artist himself becomes part of these scenes, creating a personal and intimate connection with his works.

Maurizio Pometti is an Italian artist and sculptor known for his works that combine tradition and innovation. His works have been exhibited in numerous international exhibitions, the artist is a finalist in many of the most important painting awards in Italy and in 2021 he obtained first prize at the 17th Edition of the Morlotti-Imbersago Prize / An alternative landscape, Council Chamber of the Imbersago Town Hall (LC), curated by Giorgio Seveso, Chiara Gatti, Simona Bartolena.

Pometti’s Art: A Deceptive Diary

Pometti’s works are sections of a deceptive diary, fragments of memories never lived that try to shape a new reality. This unique approach makes each of his works a piece of imagined history, a reimagined memory that invites the viewer to reflect on the nature of memory and perception.

Themes and Techniques

His painting techniques range from the use of soft and nostalgic colors to decisive brushstrokes that give life to images with a strong emotional impact. The themes covered in his paintings include family, identity and time, explored through a lens that blurs the boundaries between past and present.
