The artist Paolo Carraro, info needed urgently

[warmfuzzies]

Pretty much in the title, my daughter has been set this as a task from school, and the faily have drawn a blank aprt from some books he has contributed to we found on Amazon, and his website that demonstrates and sells his works, other than that no bakground, bibliography or influences..........as she is no longer an A grade student, but a D grade, she needs a lot of help.

So please PH massive, any info you can share will be gratefully recieved.

I have about ten art sites in my bookmarks, the first four came back as not known.
He has a book with an impressive run of nine copies
Self publish probably, I think we can assume he has less than 9 relatives.

I would guess your daughters teacher is sleeping with him.

Sorry best I can do.

Thanks chaps, sleeping with him is a likelihood given the run ins we seem to be having

Thanks for the website linky, it's usefull as a background for his work.

Does anyone have anything on his influences? as thats where this art teacher is trying to drive her subject matter.

Cheers.

This link may help her it is about neo plasticism.

Which basically is someone who can't draw or paint but wants to go to art college.
It is quite iritating in conservative circles as many of the attelliers have been taken over by these cretins.

Forgive my rantings, the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo-Plasticism

Edit to add, sorry I wasn't more helpful first time round it just winds me up when someone like him puts an artist like Velazquez in his website as though his work is linked in some way.
