Francesco Calistri, trained between Florence and Milan, is an Italian painter based in Rome.

His practice explores the relationship between perception, memory, and image transformation through a painting suspended between figuration and dissolution. Working primarily in oil on canvas, Calistri constructs images that emerge and disperse within the painted surface, balancing presence and disappearance.

Figures, faces, and plant elements are treated as unstable and transitory presences, in a research that favors vision, atmosphere, and perceptual transformation over descriptive representation.

Alongside his artistic training, he has deepened his studies in acting, visual culture and neuroscience, influencing his interest in memory, attention and the limits of vision.

He has exhibited in Italy and abroad; his works are part of private collections in Europe, the United States, and Asia.
