Brindisi the expressionist
His earlier works are particularly descriptive and lyrical – they are
the works of a great painter, inspired by political and civil commitment,
the reference to expressionism has clear, informal understanding. His
paintings used expressionist characters of the New Figuration
environment

of the most quoted and famous Italian painters of this century. His
works have been faked and copied, becoming a typical and sad phenomenon
