컬렉션: Edoardo Piermattei

Born in Ancona in 1992, Edoardo Piermattei currently lives and works in Torino, where, after opening the off-space SpazioBuonasera, together with other five artists in 2015, he opened his first studio in 2016. From 2016 until 2020 he collaborated with the Thomas Brambilla Gallery, based in Bergamo. Back in March 2017, with their support, he exhibited his work “Porziuncola” in a personal stand at Art Basel Hong Kong. In 2017 he also premiered with his first personal show, PATRONI, at the Brambilla Gallery in Bergamo. In April 2018, within the framework of the Italian Villages Project by Airbnb, Piermattei painted a vault with concrete and pigments and created a canopy for a house in Sambuca, Sicily.

His last personal show, Appunti per un miracolo permanente hai been held in Torino in 2021, in collaboration with the Quartz studio. During Supersalone 2021 in Milan, he presented his first collection of rugs Dagallà in collaboration with the brand CC-tapis. His work origines from the shapes – pittorical first, architectural after – belonging to the medieval and baroque imaginery, moving from the study of the missing fragments in the frescoes inside the Basilica of Assisi. The shapes that the artist traces through his works, mainly made of concrete and pigments, represent suggestions of vanished or invisible images: the empty space fills itself, the absences become presences.
