Bernardo Tirabosco

(Arezzo, 1991)
He obtained a Master’s Degree in Visual Arts, with a specialization in Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts P. Vannucci in Perugia.

Currently, he lives and works in Arezzo. Here, in 2019, he opened his own studio: Sottofondostudio, an independent exhibition reality in the heart of Arezzo, which has since grown and has hosted national artists
from all over the country.

Since June 2021, he has been working as a studio assistant for Giulia Cenci, an internationally acclaimed artist.

A fundamental aspect of his artistic investigation is the constant search for new forms and languages. Through the experimentation of pictorial and sculptural techniques, the manipulation of raw materials, and the reference to a historical lexicon, he gives life to installations that elaborate on the dialogue between the piece and the space it occupies in its environment.
