Biography: Leonardo Carrano (Rome, 1958). After studying at the Rome Academy of Fine Arts, he started his career as a painter
and graphic artist. In 1980 he got his first prestige recognition with the Lubian Prize awarded by Renato Guttuso. Since
1992 he has been working with experimental animation cinema. His works, resulting from the combination of different
techniques and languages, experimental and half-way between the abstract and the referential, soon attracted the
attention of critics and were selected for major festivals in Italy and abroad (The Film Festivals in Venice, Rome, Locarno,
Montreal, Paris, Zagreb, Casablanca, Shanghai, Beijing, Milan, Naples and Palermo). His animated films have frequently
been broadcast in some RAI programmes such as “Blob” and “Blob cose mai viste”. In 1994, we provided the digital
scenography for the Fininvest program L\’ANGELO. In his work, Carrano has also collaborated with well-known and
popular composers like Sylvano Bussotti, Giorgio Bastianelli, and Ennio and Andrea Morricone, Marco Colonna, Massimo
Carrano.
