Pier Toffoletti
With Pier Toffoletti we can speak of a painting that seems to come from an ancient fresco, executed on the bottom of a wall that has suffered the ravages of time, and where the pictorial text has now been partly lost, leaving an indecipherable enigma open. The way of proceeding of this artist is partly mental and partly dreamlike. (Vittorio Sgarbi)
