John Pompetti has studied at the Philadelphia College of Art, Philadelphia PA (called now University of the Arts) where he get his B.F.A. His painting precision is so perfect that although his paintings are only hand made, they seems to be a collage of teared posters. He is also a filmaker and has been involved in some film festivals in Philadelphia. In the eighties, he created and then performed live, a 16mm film and 35 mm slide show for the live musical performances of the band "The Vels". He is now a very well established art technician, in the sculpture department, at the Moore College of Art and Design
