Ideogramma AR01 (2018) Painting by Walter Perdan

My artistic journey has had several stages and different meetings with Masters and artistic personalities. But the one that decided my beginning was the meeting with the book "The spiritual in art" by Vasilij Kandinskij. I remember that I was an adolescent full of doubts and uncertainties, but the meeting with this Master enlightens my path. I read the book in one breath as if it were a fresh source of water. And so I began my art journey. At that time I was also a big fan of climbing sports. Much later he managed to merge these two interests into one. At the end of high school I would have liked to attend the Academy of Fine Arts immediately but it was not so. For several years I cultivated my self-taught interest until I met the studio of the Trieste artist Paolo Cervi Kervischer, who trained me in live drawing and painting. I remember once I participated in a series of his painting lessons "en plein air" at the park Revoltella, I was enthusiastic and once I finished the short course, when I had free time I went to paint on the Trieste Karst. Then came the big turning point, I began in the summer to manage with my sister an alpine shelter in the Julian Alps, so in winter I was free to finally attend the Academy. I took my first degree in painting in 2009 and the specialist in sculpture in 2014. Looking back I notice that I have changed a lot but I recognize the constants, I hope that even those who visit these pages may notice them.
