Besides being part of some important private collections, in particular the Liz and Jerry Reilly and the David Tatlock collections, Bolo's work has been shown in several galleries and at the Currier Museum of Fine Art, the Portsmouth Museum of Fine Art, and Paradise City Art festivals.


" Aurelio, or "Bolo", is a bolt out of the blue. Wherever his ideas, put into furniture, come from, is way different from the conventional 'takes' by American greybeards on the Orient...or, the rough-hewn lumps that have zero chance of ever qualifying as a classic.What you get in a Bolo piece is stunning and functional. Chalk it up as a plus that his breadth of view and training is far beyond these shores, even as he nestled into the quietly generative calm of Hardwick, Massachusetts, free to work out his sumptuous ideas."
