Andrea Baruffi was born in 1949 in the hills of Bologna. After attending the Art School, he embarked on the path of Architecture and graduated in Bologna. Almost immediately he left for the United States and lived in New York for over 40 years, making an amazing career first in the field of illustration and then in Communication.

He works for major American magazines and the most important agencies such as Young & Rubicam, Grey Advertising... Become Creative Director for Dover Corporation Annual Report. He takes care of the Creative Campaign for Artemide of America.La his graphic creativity and his artistic qualities give him enormous notoriety.

Since 1993 he has devoted himself intensely to painting, inspired by the works of Edward Hopper. He began a first cycle of important works representing his New York of the 50s totally in black and white with large formats (Central Station, Queen Mary, West Side, Central Park, the street games of Harlem...) Success is guaranteed! He participates in the most important exhibitions from New York, Miami, Singapore.

In recent years, his pictorial cycle has undergone a great change.  It becomes more ironic, colorful, surreal and the lock down gives it an even greater and more fun creative charge! It is his way of living this sad society in the most cheerful way possible.

He has made numerous appearances at art fairs such as Artefiera Bologna, Miami art and Strasbourg.
