* Giorgio De Chirico

His earliest works of the 1960s were mostly theoretical and displayed a simultaneous influence of 1920s Italian modernism ( see Giuseppe Terragni ), classicist influences of Viennese architect Adolf Loos, and the reflections of the painter Giorgio De Chirico.

After studying art in Athens — mainly under the guidance of the influential Greek painter Georgios Roilos — and Florence, De Chirico moved to Germany in 1906, following his father's death in 1905.

De Chirico moved to Paris in July 1911, where he joined his brother Andrea.

De Chirico is best known for the paintings he produced between 1909 and 1919, his metaphysical period, which are memorable for the haunted, brooding moods evoked by their images.

In autumn, 1919, De Chirico published an article in Valori Plastici entitled " The Return of Craftsmanship ", in which he advocated a return to traditional methods and iconography.

In 1924 De Chirico visited Paris and was accepted into the group, although the surrealists were severely critical of his post-metaphysical work.

De Chirico met and married his first wife, the Russian Ballerina Raissa Gurievich in 1925, and together they moved to Paris.

In 1930, De Chirico met his second wife, Isabella Pakszwer Far, a Russian, with whom he would remain for the rest of his life.

De Chirico won praise for his work almost immediately from writer Guillaume Apollinaire, who helped to introduce his work to the later Surrealists.

De Chirico strongly influenced the Surrealist movement: Yves Tanguy wrote how one day in 1922 he saw one of De Chirico's paintings in an art dealer's window, and was so impressed by it he resolved on the spot to become an artist — although he had never even held a brush.

Other artists as diverse as Giorgio Morandi, Carlo Carrà and Philip Guston were influenced by De Chirico.

Michelangelo Antonioni, the Italian film director, also claimed to be influenced by De Chirico.

Modern photographer Duane Michals was also influenced by De Chirico.

Writers who have appreciated De Chirico include John Ashbery, who has called Hebdomeros " probably ... the finest work of Surrealist fiction.

" Several of Sylvia Plath's poems are influenced by De Chirico.

Fumito Ueda's critically acclaimed PlayStation 2 game Ico ( and also its sequel, Shadow of the Colossus, in a less direct way ) was strongly influenced by De Chirico.
