Bruno Di Maio was born in North Africa to Italian parents who were among the first "farmers" of that land. He attended the Art Institute in Perugia and Rome and worked in the antiquarian environment of the Capital. Among Piazza di Spagna, via Margutta and via del Babuino, in the ideal quadrilateral of the art, he worked as a restorer beside the best teachers of the era, including Pico Cellini, his spiritual mentor. He learned from gilders, carvers, cabinetmakers; never forgetting to see the world with the marvelling eyes of a child and to represent it with the skill of a good artisan. Currently Bruno works mainly for international clients, his works are in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Tokyo, Madrid, Berlin and in particular in the Countries of Northern Europe, in Holland, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark, Norway, where culture of magical surrealism has deep roots.
