Roberto DeWan was born in 1964 in Turin. He has had two different lives, just like his hometown, which conceals the beauty of its peaceful areas and artistic soul behind its industrial appearance. He learned painting techniques and nude interpretation from Raffaele Pontecorvo, and also studied International Relations and wrote a thesis on wartime graphics, getting his degree at 23. He then began experiences in fashion design in Milan, Munich, Paris, and London, before focusing entirely on powerful, spiritual pure painting and having several solo exhibitions, including the most recent ones at Alson Gallery in Milan in 2017 and at the Galleria d'Arte Contemporanea Antonio Battaglia in Brera in 2021. Since 2022, he has been actively collaborating with the Mecenate.online platform curated by Antoninno Petralia, organizing numerous internationally renowned artistic events.
