Antonio De Vity was born in Naples in 1901. His life can be described with a few sentences: his big passion for painting and art, and his great love for Paris, the city where his grandmother was originated from.
His father was a very well known painter in Naples at the beginning of 1900, and he introduced young Antonio to the world af art. Antonio attended Naples art lyceum and at the age of 17 he spent a few years in his beloved Paris, in a small loft near place St. Michel. During those years he had the opportunity to attend l'école des beaux arts, and join those places he still shows in his paintings: Notre Dame, le Café de la paix, le Moulin Rouge etc.
In 1950, as soon as he came home, he opened his art studio in Naples that in less than 10 years became a very important meeting place for neapolitan artists.
During the 60ies De Vity art studio became one of the most important neapolitan school, with more than 20 painters who studied with him. His first expositions started since 1953 in Bruxelles, 1955 in Marrakech, 1956 in Madrid, 1957 in Moroc and the followers especially in France, between Paris and other big cities.
He died in 1993, but the art studio was closed some years before.
