Artist: Paolo Andre Gualdi | Location: Florence, SC
Florence, SC
Born and raised in Rome, Italy, Paolo André Gualdi moved to the U.S. in 2000. Gualdi is a classical pianist with the passion for landscape and nature photography.
For his eighth birthday, Gualdi received a Polaroid Instant Camera, and since then photography has become an essential element of his personal expression, together with music.
His first recognition as photographer came with the acceptance of one of his works at the 2013 ArtField's competition. Right after that, he received the 1st place at the Florence Regional Arts Alliance's 2014 "Small Work Competition."
His works have received wide acclaim nationally and internationally, and have been described as "[exhibiting] great composition and expression as well as technique."
