Joseph
Lorusso was born in Chicago, Illinois, in 1966 and received his
formal training at the American Academy of Art. He went on to receive
his B.F.A. degree from the Kansas City Art Institute. Born of Italian
descent, Lorusso was exposed to art at an early age. Through several
early trips to Italy, his parents introduced him to works of the
Italian Masters. Lorusso would look to these influences throughout
his early artistic development and they are still evident in his
work today.
