Biography
Lorenzo Puglisi (Biella, 1971) is author of a pictorial research characterized by the widespread use of black colour on the canvas which creates an absolute dark background, where the emanating streams of light are able to define volumes, faces, parts of the body, such as presences captured in an expression or a gesture, as the result of a long journey towards the essence of the representation and full of references to the history of painting. In recent years his artistic research has focused on large canvases related to great masterpieces of the past filtered by his iconography. In 2019 a monography of his work has been published by Hatje Cantz (Berlin) with an essay by Mark Gisbourne. The book features the most emblematic works of the artist’s career with a section dedicated to Il Grande Sacrificio, the exhibition held in Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan to commemorate the 500th anniversary of Leonardo da Vinci’s death.
His work has been showed in many solo and group exhibitions internationally in public and private space, among them the CAC La Traverse in Paris, the Pio Monte della Misericordia in Naples, The Historical Museum in Bremen, the Sacristy of Bramante in Milan, the Crypt of King's Cross St. Pancras Church in London.
Last September he opened an exhibition in Florence in Santo Spirito’s Church with one of his painting, Crucifixion, along with a Michelangelo’s sculpture of Christ on the cross.
Future projects will include an exhibition at the Latvian National Museum of Art in Riga in summer 2021 in collaboration with the Uffizi Galleries in Florence.
