I am deeply honored to share an important milestone of my artistic journey.
I have been selected as a laureate of the prestigious
International Prize “Artist in the Art History” 
The official ceremony will take place on January 24, 2026 at the historic Borghese Palace (Palazzo Borghese) in Florence – one of the most remarkable aristocratic palaces in Italy and a symbol of world cultural heritage.
This recognition celebrates artists whose work contributes to the evolution of contemporary art and its dialogue with history. For me, it is both an honor and a responsibility – to continue creating with depth, sincerity, cultural memory, and a strong connection to the viewer.
My gratitude goes to everyone who supports my artistic path – collectors, gallerists, colleagues, and art lovers. Your trust and attention give meaning to every creation.
Thank you for being with me – let us shape the future chapters of art together.
Florence, Italy
January 24, 2026
In January 2024, I received my first Botticelli International Award in this beautiful city — Florence, which is closest to my heart.
And today, I am delighted to announce that this prestigious award, so important for any artist hoping to leave their mark on the history of world art, will once again be presented to me in the same city, in the magnificent hall of the Palazzo Borghese.
This is a particularly significant moment in my creative journey — when the path of the past meets the path of the future, and dreams gain new strength and embodiment.
I express my deep gratitude to my curators, Salvatore Russo and Francesco Saverio Russo. Without your support, your trust and your kind attitude towards my work, such events and moments of celebration would not have been possible!
