Matteo Pietro Olivero (15 June 1879 - 28 April 1932) was an Italian painter, known for his technique of reproducing sunlight reflections without physically mixing colour pigments. For that matter he is considered a leading painter of the Italian divisionism, although he's still little-known outside art collector's environment. In 1896 Matteo Olivero attended the Accademia Albertina delle Belle Arti in Turin. During his life he took part of several exhibitions across Europe and started a collaboration with "Les Tendances Nouvelles", a parisian art journal.
