Giuseppe Calzone

Born 1953, Toscana Italy.

Giuseppe calzone originally made a name for himself in Motorsport. Calzone supported motorcyclist Valentino Rossi as a teenager until he signed his first professional contract with Team Aprilia.

Calzone sold his share in CalzoneBaggio Motorsports in 1979 following his marriage to South Korean socialite Myra Wang-Tu. They had one child, Dong-Sun Calzone.

Following Calzone's marriage he followed the art market, collecting and selling at auction during the 1980s, briefly owning a gallery in Milan, Calzone Fine Arts. Giuseppe Calzone had collected art since he was left a Picasso nude sketch in his grandfather's will at the age of 17.
