Silvio Porzionato

About the Artists:

Silvio Porzionato was born in Moncalieri, Italy in 1971. He is a figurative painter who paints large scale portraits. He travels around with a camera photographing friends and people he meets on the street. His figures are depicted in statuary close-up.

When Silvio graduated from art school, he became a designer a for a decade in worked in a renowned Italian design company. After ten years working in design Silvio decided to start a new life in the silence of the countryside, closely linked with nature and art.

After only one year he got Mondadori Art Prize and in 2010 won the critics prize in Saluzzo Art as well as having his work included in the permanent collection of the Museum of
Urban Art in Turin.

 

In 2011 he was selected for the 54th Venice Arts. In 2013 he created three installations named "Temporal Code" composed of 112 paintings for the MACS (Museum of
Contemporary Art in Sicily). Almost a gallery of mirrors that reflected the different ages of man from childhood to old age: each portrait had the same intensity and significance.

His latest solo and group exhibitions were held in Hong Kong, Miami, Chicago, London, Paris, Bogotá, New York, Seoul and Istanbul.
