Pittore ed esecutore di vetrate policrome.

Miraldo Sponza was born of Istrian parents at Rovigno d’Istria (Pola).
Very soon, however, he left his birthplace to travel, animated by a desire to know, to meet people and to undergo new experiences.
After various wanderings he arrived in Sicily where he finally found a climate and an atmosphere in agreement with his character.
“I found in Sicily – the artist tells us- the proper harmony to express my artistic personality.
Fascinated by the blue sky and white-hot sun of that country, I began a meticulous work of selftaugt research . Not happy with my first results I enrolled at an art school in Catania
where I had the opportunity of meeting the invaluable maestro Mario Del Vesco, who was
in a manner of speaking, my firts real teacher.”
Later on he established himself in Switzerland where he continued his research into painting. One can still find many of his canvases in the Canton of San Gallo. Finally he moved to Turin and thanks to the cultural experience and artistic acquisites which he brought with him , and thanks also to the fact that he had already acquired a fine reputation, he was not long in being accepted into artistic circles and in making many friends. He founded with the painters Salmoria Walter and Carlo Passeretti Group C, and “The Shell Gallery”,
an association of young artists united by friendship and love of art. Torino 1970.
