Wedo Georgetti
Wedo Georgetti was born in Italy. This California Post-Impressionist came to the United States at the age of one. Georgetti first worked as a merchant seaman to support his art studies and traveled all over the world accumulating sketches, many of which he later worked up into paintings. He made frequent visits to France, where he was influenced by the Post-Impressionists and, particularly, by the Nabis. An innovative theorist, Georgetti was the originator of the style known as California Fauvism. He exhibited widely and with success, both at exhibitions and at one-man shows. The recipient of numerous medals, prizes and juried awards, Georgetti continued to paint and sculpt in his Sausalito studio into his 90s.
