Tommaso Cascella was born in Rome in 1951. His painting tends towards a three-dimensional transposition in symbiosis with the sculptural technique. Cascella's intense chromatic compositions are true architectures studded with symbols, almost an alchemical alphabet full of universal meanings. Painting and sculpture are treated with the desire to contaminate sight with touch, the smooth surface of color with a stratification of gestures and signs, the ideal plane of painting with conspicuous material inserts. The titles of the works are often borrowed from poetry and literature, his other great passions. In the early 1980s he began to exhibit in public and private spaces in Italy and abroad. His works were acquired in the collections of important museums in Japan, China and Taiwan. In 1995 he was appointed Academician for sculpture at the Accademia di San Luca. Among the most recent exhibitions in Italy are Linguaggio dell’iride at the Chiostro di Sant’Agostino in Pietrasanta in 2006, and in the same year the solo exhibition at the Archaeological Museum of Terni. In 2011 he participated in the Venice Biennale with the sculpture Cielo rovesciato and in 2012 he exhibited at Palazzo Aldobrandini in Rome for the project Arte in Regola. In the same year he presented the exhibition Tra memoria e invenzione at the University of Roma Tre. Tommaso Cascella lives and works in Bomarzo Italy.
