Original Artwork by Pietro Adamo
Recently Sold Paintings
Pietro Adamo has a profound interest in the abstract. His paintings are visual celebrations of both the artist’s admiration for the “unpredictable and inexhaustible record of life” and the very freedom with which it is all expressed. In his passion to convey an emotion, a place or any image that may have stirred his memory, Pietro Adamo abandons the monotony of conventional subject matter in favour of vibrancy, spontaneity and organic brushwork. Adamo has explored a variety of styles and genres including portraiture, figuration, surrealism, hyperrealism and others. Using acrylic, oils, silkscreen and textural elements in his unique abstract works, Adamo applies layer upon layer to create boldness and intensity. “I have to paint to speak without words, to express myself without restrictions... never relenting.” Adamo is an art professor and has been the subject of a television series devoted to important Italo-Canadian artists. His work can be found in galleries and private collections throughout the United States, Canada and Europe.
