Sergio Birga (Florence, 1940). His first works are influenced by the German Expressionism. He moved to Germany to meet the protagonists of the movement: Heckel, Meidner, Kokoschka, Otto Dix and Conrad Felixmüller who gave him their advices and made an exchange of portraits with him. In 1965, he moved to Paris where he studied engraving at the Beaux-Arts in Lucien Coutaud's studio. From 1969 to 1975, he was a member of the Salon de la Jeune Peinture committee. In 1977, he participated in the exhibition “Mythologies Quotidiennes 2”. In the 1980s, he tackled new themes, linked to the Italian heritage of the classical painting, with references to gardens, statues, mythological figures
