He is known for dedicating himself to the research of the ancient techniques used in metalworking.
BIOGRAPHY
After having obtained a diploma at the Ronciglione State secondary school with a concentration in scientific studies, Akelo transferred to Rome, where for several years he worked as a graphic artist while continuing to pursue his in-depth studies of texts and documents relating to ancient goldsmithing, metallurgy, and alchemy.
Combining this theoretical understanding with extensive experimentation on materials and techniques, the artist now entirely devotes himself to creating gold objects and to making sculptural objects out of gold, bronze, and iron, using the artistic name of Akelo (from Achelous, Greek god of the waters).
In 2010 the artist created the bronze sculpture "Hope" for the Robert Bresson Prize given every years at the Venice Film Festival.
The works of Andrea Cagnetti have been exhibited in many national and international exhibitions, and have caused a sensation in the media throughout the world. In fact, numerous publications, reviews and television appearances have been dedicated to him, which highlight not only his talent and his stylistic originality, but also the value of his research.
In the last few years, some of his pieces have been acquired by important museums and private collections.
Andrea Cagnetti lives in Corchiano, where he also writes scientific articles on the techniques used in ancient goldsmith.

the north east of Scotland. As adolescents they were slowly introduced to
society, teaching each other to read and write and eventually going to
school in Aberdeen.
On leaving school Janee travelled extensively, searching for life’s hidden
meanings. She lived and worked in Europe, Eastern Asia and the Middle East
but unenlightened, she returned to Scotland to study psychology and art.
‘I had been dabbling in oil painting since I was a young child. My
grandmother always had a painting on the easel so I spent many hours with
her, drawing, painting and absorbing the aromatic mysteries of linseed oil
and turpentine.’ In 2000, Janee relocated to the wilds of north east
Scotland, where she has maintained her career as a painter since.
Janee is a figurative painter digital design-mixed media artist. ‘I’m
fascinated by the unusual, often tragic lives of my kind and I make art
about it.’ As Byron put it, ‘We of the craft are all crazy…..some are
affected by gaiety, others by melancholy, but all are more or less
touched…’ Janee uses a mix of media to illustrate these concepts and
creates paintings to objectify the arcane, paying homage to its memory
and lamenting its loss.
