Life

Malice was a student at the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples, where he attended courses by Emilio Notte. of great Bedeutung.Seine picturesque beginnings in 1960 reveal a figurative structure, which seems to be influenced by the direction Novecento. In that period, the influence of painters like Striccoli, Chiancone and Brancaccio. At the beginning of the 1960s was the Informal Art Malice in more detail, with a preference for the "material" aspect, which he abschaute by Domenico Spinosa. Malice In 1963 he moved to Calabria. In the works of these years, as Giorgio Di Genova noticed alternate " constructivist tendency and lyrical devotion from; sometimes they occur in contrast with expressionist " ejections " and are solved by chromatic clusters, some of which are reminiscent of atmospheric phenomena or air movement, and partly by implosive concentrations of colors to be matter. In all these solutions are mixed, the two sides of the informal, the " Abstraction lyrique " and " abstract expressionism ".

From 1968 Malice artistic interests were no longer from the contrast between light and color, but of light and shadow.
