Painting: A Journey Between Dream and Reality
Painting
A Journey Between Dream and Reality
Paolo Amoretti was born and raised in Liguria. After studying at the Ligurian Academy of Fine Arts in Genoa, he developed a pictorial exploration that moves between the visible and the invisible. His painting is an interior journey: it embraces dreams, memory, and the metaphysical dimension, transforming each brushstroke into a fragment of vision.
His works combine disjointed figures, dreamlike presences, and urban spaces that become places of the soul. This dialogue between reality and imagination has led him to exhibit in prestigious venues—from Forte di Gavi to Palazzo Lamba Doria in Genoa—and to participate in international fairs and exhibitions, such as the Berlin Positions Art Fair and the Asia Contemporary Art Show in Hong Kong.
