Biography

Massimo Cristaldi was born in Catania (Italy) in 1970.

Art is, nevertheless, the environment in which he grew up and Photography the way he can set his interior creative side free.

He has been recently awarded at the International Photography Awards 2008 and 2009 at the B&W Spider Awards 2008, at the Photography Masters Cup 2008, at the Travel Photographers Of the Year 2008 and the the Prix de Photographie de Paris 2009.
