La Notizia (2025) Painting by Roberto Cafarotti

Born in Rome on August 21, 1978, Cafarotti showed his artistic talent early: at just ten years old, he created his first painting, entitled The Lamp. Alongside his passion for art, he undertook a scientific education, graduating from a scientific high school and earning a degree in nuclear engineering. However, his artistic vocation remained central to his life, leading him to develop a personal style characterized by careful details and studied proportions. In addition to his creative activity, Cafarotti stands out as an active figure in the world of contemporary Italian art. Over the course of his career, he developed significant relationships with important artists on the Italian contemporary scene, including Athos Faccincani, Alfonso Borghi, Paolo da San Lorenzo, a pupil of Picasso, Sergio Terzi, Antonio Ligabue's chauffeur, Lucio Diodati, and Giacomo Manzù, whom he met at a young age in his studio in Ardea. Initially a collector, he cultivated relationships with numerous artists, later evolving into a cultural promoter. Among his collaborations, the one with the artist Alfonso Borghi stands out, whose career he has supported since 2019, accompanying him to exhibitions in various Italian cities and contributing to the dissemination of his work.

Cafarotti has published a catalog published by Giorgio Mondadori. Curator and art historian Daniela Brignone, a former professor at the University of Palermo, describes Cafarotti's work as an "intimate meditation on personal and collective experiences," in which the Roman artist investigates human existence through the theme of the game of life, intertwining freedom, destiny, and control. His canvases, defined as narrative tableaux, present concrete worlds populated by objects and symbolic signs, offering a reflection on the implicit rules of society.

Cafarotti's artistic production is characterized by an approach that combines technical precision and conceptual depth, exploring existential dynamics with a visual language rich in detail. At the same time, his commitment to promoting art takes shape through the creation of websites and advertising campaigns for fellow artists, consolidating his role in the Italian cultural landscape.
