Biography
1) Italian musician
Born in Margherita di Savoia, Italy on September 19, 1959, Raffaele Riefoli entered the music business in 1983, when his debut album “Self Control” was released as Raf. The album proved successful on the Italian charts, with two singles — “Change Your Mind” and “Hard” — performing very well. Almost five years later, Raf delivered his second album, “Svegliarsi un Anno Fa”, and 1989’s “Cosa Restera” followed quickly afterwards. Next to these, he released several albums, including:
* 1991 Sogni…E’ Tutto Quello Che C’e
* 1993 Cannibali
* 1995 Manifesto
* 1996 Collezione Temporanea
* 1998 La Prova
* 2001 Iperbole
* 2004 Ouch
* 2005 Tutto Raf
* 2007 Passeggeri Distratti
He’s one of the most famous pop Italian musician in his nation for his love songs.

Music as moving pictorial art
This is a series of musical paintings. They are political paintings reflecting a few visions of the world, on America (Stay Where You Are), on the horn of Africa (Land Of The Dead And Dying), on history and time in development (Buchla in Australia, Konkret).
These portraits will tell a tale of age, geography and ideology.
