the "Instituto Statale D'Arte" in Sciacca, from where he
graduated. He has then continued his studies at the accademy of the
"Belle Arti di Brera" in Milano, where he studies
scenography and achieved his teaching degree un reality Catanzaro
will never embrace a teacher's career.

opportunity of worning as an assistant art director with one of the
greatest directors, Federico Fellini, while he was filming the
"Satyricon".
After some vicissitudes,
some highs and lows in his career, atanzaro decides to leave Italy
for America.
In America, he continues his
fervid creative activity with even more transport as he comes in
touch with new horizons and his imagination is set free. Sl Catanzaro
has never wished to participate at any art course or shows but he has
been able to cure even the smallest detail of every public event to
which he has participated as an artist.Thus, Sal"breaks away"
whith his art, setting himself apart ffrom any tradition or
convention always remaining true ro his world.
Salvatore Catanzaro painting
is characterized by a multipicity of form that stretches vertically,
alterating and adding variousthemes, Horizonntally, they vary and
modify the same selectedobject.
The artist is not interested
in the same thing that interest others, but his internal journey.
In this sense Catanzaro acts
to pioneer common sense, taking little care of the thematic orders
and concentrating on a discontinuity that belongs to tempermant and
personality Each work espress a moment of intuite happiness, to which
the constructive suffering follows that which decides the level of
its position in the circle of his work, which is a corpus incontinuom
expression
