Il Maestro : The Maestro Romano Ranieri - For his biography please refere to the page Romano Ranieri biography

Artistic Director: Nicola Boccini : born in Deruta, after having obtained a degree at the Academy of Fine Arts of Perugia, in the Sculpture department, directed his attention to a more profound study of the technology of ceramics, and to the search for new types of clay, new enamels and natural colors. Experimentation is always present in his works, with various mixtures of metals and soils, enamels and natural oxidants, making his works unique and sometimes non-repeatable. His training is of a classical nature in the decoration and painting of ceramics, but contemporary in the area of sculpture. He often combines various materials like iron, wood, bronze etc to create sculptures with interesting aesthetic results. Various travels and cultural exchange programs, as well as teaching assignments undertaken in Italy and abroad, have brought him today to have full knowledge of almost all the techniques existing in the world of ceramics. With this knowledge, he also creates performances or happenings around Europe. Since 1995 he is the head of the programs on Ceramics in Italy and Europe with various courses financed by the F.S.E., in 1997 he created the C.L.S. (Free Experimental Ceramics), and in 2000 he created along with other artists and master ceramicists a School of Ceramic Art. He has participated and continues to participate in exhibitions, festivals and art shows throughout Europe. See Nicola's Curriculum
