he even trained as a restorer, having himself patented equipment and technologies that will be used on monuments and valuable buildings. <\/p>\n<p>Recently, the artist-restaurateur participated with a solo exhibition in Artemente Gallery&#8217;s coveted Jesolo Prize, which opened on June 1, 2025: in this extraordinary context, Paul exhibited 11 works that trace the author&#8217;s memories and recollections through views of places that are part of his lived experience- titles are emblematic such a <b>&#8220;The Bakery with Pastries, Reggio Emilia&#8221;<\/b> and <b>&#8220;Venegazz\u00f9 Treviso&#8221;<\/b> &#8211; in which the author, with a strong background in graphic design, advertising and marketing, has developed a special technique of executing his panels with acrylic and paper on canvas, which are the prototype of the multiples printed on satin polyfiber fabric.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243;
