We now introduce curator and gallerist Tommaso Calabro, here to share his personal take on the Baldinini footwear he chose to complement his look. Known for his dedication to contemporary and modern art, Tommaso’s work fosters dialogues between emerging artists and masters of the past. His exhibitions create unique encounters that blend innovation with tradition. Through his artistic vision and carefully curated spaces, he invites visitors to engage with the rich tapestry of artistic expression, offering fresh perspectives on the conversation between different eras.

“I’d name these Baldinini shoes ‘Giorgio’ because Giorgio de Chirico is my favorite artist. They remind me of my favorite painting by him—a self-portrait in exactly these colors”, Tommaso explains. “I chose these shoes for their unique elegance; they align with what I represent—a balance of understated refinement and careful attention to style. If my sneakers could talk? They’d say they’re always by my side. I love to walk, so imagining myself without them is impossible."
