Half Romanian and half Italian, Andrei was born in the picturesque Province of Cuneo (Piedmont) in the autumn of 2005. Italy is where he discovered his passion for painting, since very early age and if you were to ask him for how long he has been painting, a definite answer will always be: ’I have been painting for as long as I can remember’. His first recognition came at the age of 6 when he won first prize at the ‘Befana’ competition organised by Ferrero. Andrei had over 60 group and personal exhibitions - amongst which more than half were personal-, in China, France, Spain, Bulgaria, Italy, Romania and Republic of Moldova. Andrei Pennazio`s ‘journey with art and within art passed and surpassed him, sequence by sequence, towards the natural cohesion and accumulation of mastery, the one that amalgamates talent with diligence. His accomplishment in mastery and his becoming of an artist it is obvious, for he is an artist dedicated, for now, to the centricity and ex-centricity of abstract art.
