Goffredo Civitarese nasce a Chieti ma attualmente vive e lavora Pescara.La sua attivià artistica risale agli anni Sessanta, quando iniziò con mostre personali negli spazi espositivi della sua città. I successivi lavori lo hanno visto protagonista innovativo in importanti città italiane quali Napoli, Roma, Bologna, Milano, Forlì, Vercelli, Pisa, Livorno, Siena, San Marino.. ed internazionali come Lugano, Basilea, Amsterdam, Londra, Columbus e New York. La sua ricerca pittorica, rivolta inizialmente alla sperimentazione di materiali diversi è approdata ad esiti figurativi intensamente cromatici ricchi di suggestioni evocative. La sua attenzione è ormai da anni indirizzata allo studio della figura umana collocata in monteplici contesti pittorici, nei quali volti e corpi appaiono annegati nel colore, con risultati forti di sensazioni enigmatiche.

Federico Maldarelli (Napoli, 1826 - Napoli, 1893) è stato un pittore, scultore e docente italiano, di impronta accademica neoclassica. Federico Maldarelli ebbe i primi rudimenti dell'arte dal padre Gennaro, pittore napoletano, e successivamente fu allievo di Costanzo Angelini, pittore neoclassico, tramite cui poté partecipare fin da giovanissimo alle mostre d'arte Borboniche Nel 1867 partecipò all'Esposizione universale di Parigi e nel 1880 al Salon, con due dipinti di ridotte dimensioni - Bagno e Assunzione - che lo fecero conoscere ed apprezzare anche sui mercati inglese e tedesco, dove le sue opere furono richieste dai collezionisti più che in patria, dove si affermava il verismo, promosso dal suo amico e coetaneo Domenico Morelli. Ne è testimonianza il successo ottenuto a Rochester nel 1878, presso la Rundel Gallery, dei dipinti Il bagno pompeiano e La vergine vestale. Federico Maldarelli creò anche opere scultoree, a partire dal 1878.
