About the artist:

Antonio Cazzamali was born in Milan in 1934. His father, a decorator-painter born in Vaiano Cremasco tried to get him into his own art, but Antonio didn't want to know at first; after the death of his father he had an afterthought and from 1953 he devoted himself actively to painting. Painter and sculptor, present on the art scene for many years, he is also dedicated to graphics and goldsmith art. He is one of the greatest exponents of space painting, with whom he has gained great fame. He has exhibited in Italy and abroad, in solo and group exhibitions, in New York, Milan, Turin, Rome, Basel, Champion of Italy, Catania, Sanremo, Stresa, Genoa and in many other cities. He has received prestigious awards and acknowledgments, the Ambrogino d’Oro of the Municipality of Milan, the medal of the Thirty Year of the Italian Republic and the Cup of the Minister of Tourism. He is a member of the Honorary Cultural Academy of Europe. He illustrated series of science fiction books and scientific texts and is present with several works in the Mondial Art collection in Milan. His works are present both in public and private collections, both Italian and foreign, in the museums of Rome, Turin, Milan, Arona, Livorno and at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of Washington. From 4 to 14 January 1972 he represented the city of Milan at the Palace of Art at the 5th Biennial of Art in Rome.
