Luigi Rocca (1952) - photo 1

Luigi Rocca

Luigi Rocca is an Italian hyperrealist painter.

Luigi was born into a family of artists and, influenced from a young age by his grandfather's photographic work, he eventually became one of the leading exponents of photorealism.

He made repeated exploratory trips to New York City, a city full of architecture, advertising and light, which inspired him to create magnificent photorealist motifs. Rocca combined his classical technique with modern realism, creating illusionistic and richly detailed paintings that are recognized by art lovers and collectors around the world. They appear so realistic that it's hard to see the difference between a photograph and a painting.
