Antonio Scordia was born in Santa Fe, Argentina, in 1918. In 1931, he moved to Rome with his parents. Between 1936 and 1944 he attended the Free School of the Academy of France. He began exhibiting in Rome in 1945, and his style adhered to that of the Scuola Romana in its strong expressionism. He later came to a free structuring of pictorial space with large areas of color and bold marks. He collaborated with Federico Fellini in the scenery for the film Satyricon (1969). He had Fellowship at the Tamarind Lithography Workshop in Los Angeles in 1961 where he explored lithography with master printers Garo
Anteasian and Bohuslav Horak. His work is widely held, including in the National Modern Art Gallery in Rome. He died in 1988.
