Vincenzo Marsiglia

He studied art at the Imperia Art Institute and then at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, where he graduated in Painting. He began exhibiting in the 1990s with solo and group exhibitions in private galleries, museums and public spaces in Italy and abroad.
Vincenzo Marsiglia’s works are characterised by their development from a four-pointed star, which over time becomes his hallmark, a veritable ‘logo’ of the artist. The construction of his works becomes, so to speak, an obsessive operation that generates components in which this symbol is combined with fabric, felt-tip pens, sequins and ceramics, in a game where rhythm and form, rigorous and balanced, recall the lesson of the masters of abstract art and minimalism. However, in his most recent creations, the artist employs technological tools that combine with the painterly nature of the sign characteristic of his previous research phase. In these works, we find both a contemporary aspect related to new communication tools and the desire to create not a concrete, finished and determined object, but an evolving and transitory work of art. Through the interaction with the viewer, the work of art finds its realisation in the process of connection and mutation, which also leads to a decrease in the distance between the art object and the viewer.
