Biography - Exhibitions - Collective - Collections - Awards
Vincenzo Frattini (Salerno, 1978 - lives and works between Turin and Campagna (SA) In 2006 he graduated in Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples, where he attended the experimental course "Quartapiture" coordinated by the master Ninì Sgambati the aim of the course consisted in the elaboration of works with poetics referable to mass events, such as the installation-performance Sogno comune at the Lia Rumma gallery in Naples.During the years of study, while cultivating an interest in painting, he also approaches experimentation video and, since 2002, participates in various group exhibitions and awards.
In 2003 the Giffoni Sei Casali Environmental Art Museum acquired one of his sculptures entitled "The Collector of Moons", while in 2007 he was selected for the final in the Video Section of the Celeste Award. His research ranges from sculpture to video, up to performances. Painting remains the language most congenial to him, making the game between color and form the leitmotif of his works, in order to trace the flow of human life and the emotions that derive from it. Among his latest exhibitions we remember the personal New Works at the Tube Culture Hall gallery in Milan, participation in the project Musée éclaté-museo without limits in Pontecagnano for the creation of a public sculpture. In 2020 he won the Catalog prize in the Lab14 Art Prize competition and is a finalist in the Arte Laguna prize.
