Aldo Mazzi was born in 1937 in Livorno where he lives and works without rest in his studio located inside of the historical “Casini di Ardenza”. Mazzi is a self-taught artist who paints since his early youth and who can be appreciated as a part of the “macchiaiola” and “Post-macchiaiola” tradition, always strongly related to the live painting, the so-called “en plein air”. His work as an artist evolves in a path of observation and study through the representation of the places around him, bringing life to a way of painting that is at the same time true and lyric, free of intricate technical engagements. Mazzi's work has achieved a place of great value in the local public reputation as well as an enviable active market among his many collectors.
