Turi Distefano, aka ARGO, is a visual designer and illustrator based in Rome.

 

After completing art studies, he worked  several years for different Italian advertising agencies. Currently, he is a freelancer specializing in publishing and corporate events.

 

“My goal is to develop a style that is both traditional and modern. In my works I apply textures to simulate engraving techniques, and I am inspired by Jean Michel Folon’s poetics and Magritte’s surrealism. In every illustration I seek a solution that may disclose a story.”
