    Ferruccio Bortoluzzi Ferruccio Bortoluzzi Wikipedia

    "...I remember in the 60s when I first showed my mixed-medium works. They provoked bewilderment, and were even mocked by those collectors who preferred the palette of popular artists to the roughness and asperity of my wood pieces. I feel profoundly Venetian; son of this extraordinary city. My works are dedicated to Venice. In them you can read the affirmation of its decline, the exaltation of the dull colors typical of damp, foggy, winter days. You can smell the brackish odor of the marshes... For this I would have liked something more. My exhibitions in Venice were always followed with dedication by the many friends who live here with me among these stones and the marble of these churches which hold up their majestic domes to the sky. And yet, at times the critics were not very kind to me..."
