Chinese and Italian artists share ideas

When Chinnici turned 40, he lost vision in his left eye, and in the past two decades, the sight in his right eye has deteriorated due to macular degeneration.

Despite this, he continues to paint at the age of 81, expressing his sentiments by depicting the traditional lifestyle, natural landscape and people in the region of Sicily as well as throughout Italy.

Traveling has become difficult for him, so he was unable to attend the premiere in person. Instead, his son Francesco Chinnici served as his representative and gave a lecture about his works.
