Paolo De Poli has been the
protagonist of hundreds of exhibitions in Italy and abroad. He
participated to Biennale d’arte in Venice 14 times and to the Triennale
in Milan for 10 times.
Innovative works, original
designs and unique pieces were seen for the first time together at the
great anthological exhibition The Art of Enamel: Paolo De Poli with
which in 1984 the city of Padua celebrated, in the Palazzo della
Ragione, his fifty years of activity.
