Francesco Clemente

Francesco Clemente is an Italian artist known for his contemporary paintings exploring themes of sexuality, violence and spirituality. His paintings inspired by traditional art and Indian culture takes a look into figurative and symbolism.

Clemente (born 1952 in Naples) rose to international prominence in the early 1980s as a leading figure of the Italian Transavanguardia, the movement that returned figuration and myth to contemporary painting. Dividing his time between Italy, New York and India, he has produced a vast body of watercolours, pastels, frescoes and prints exploring the body, dream and spiritual transformation.
