Luigi Pretin Abstract Paintings

Luigi Pretin was born in Chioggia, Italy on June 8, 1938. A very young part in Morocco, then he went to Portugal, then to Spain and finally, he arrived in France. This nation had a great influence on him. In Paris, they soon ranked him among the research painters. In the Parisian environment, he is therefore acquainted with many artists, including the master's De Chirico and Salvador Dali. And it is precisely Dalì who has great persuasive power over him; so much so that for a certain period he embraces the "Surrealism" that then abandons to elaborate an original painting in which the dream and the reality are merged by merging the oneiric element and the matter. In December 2007, in Paris, Luigi Pretin ranked 3rd in the First International Eiffel Trophy. After the Parisian experience, he returned to Italy to settle first in Turin, then in Albissola, where he opened a new studio, continuing to maintain contacts with Italian and foreign galleries.
