Andrea Grotto

(Schio, 1989) 
 
Andrea Grotto attended the Venice Academy of Fine Arts and its vibrant art scene graduating in Painting with Prof. Carlo Di Raco.
 
He has participated in various residencies and competitions in Italy and abroad including: the Atelier of the Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa in Venice, the Combat Prize, the GlogauAir in Berlin, the Fabbri Prize, the Ora Prize and the Michetti Prize.  Excellent painter and draughtsman in his paintings the artist with a refined and refined painting, gives voice, to his imaginary poised between reality and dream. Representations that at the same time disorient and involve the viewer precisely because of this continuous transition between being and could be. 
 
Works in which elements drawn from nature such as plants, minerals and animals are mixed with quotations from Greek statuary, medieval and cosmological documents, in a unique flow of images and thoughts.
