Tano Festa (Rome 1938 - 1988) was an Italian artist, painter and photographer.
Brother of Francesco Lo Savio, he attended the Art Institute in Rome and graduated in photography in 1957. He trained in the example of Cy Twombly and gestural and informal painting.
His first public participation took place in 1959 together with Franco Angeli and Giuseppe Uncini at a group exhibition at the La Salita gallery in Rome, where he held his first solo exhibition only in 1961.
A protagonist of the Roman Pop School, he embraced New Dada solutions with formal rigour, proposing isolated monochrome objects of everyday use. Famous are the shutters, mirrors and windows, which become a support for his activity as a painter.
From 1963 Festa also focused on the masters of the Italian tradition and the Renaissance, in particular the Michelangelo of the Sistine Chapel and the Medici Chapels, interpreted as advertising images.
He was invited to participate in the 1965 Quadriennale in Rome and later in the 1980 Venice Biennale.
During the last years of his fulminating existence, in the places of the Roman suburbs, the shacks and the last out-of-town taverns he conceived, giving birth to 'the light of Egypt', geometric-conceptual works.
In 1984, he appeared in the TV series 'Artisti allo Specchio' (Artists in the Mirror) on RAI Italian Radio Television, directed by Mario Carbone.
