Andrea Botto

Interested in the cross-pollination of various contemporary art mediums, he uses photography as a means of dissecting the world in order to express its complexity and to expose its stratifications. Time, collective imagination, as well as the current transformations that mark the present age, are the key themes of his work, which explores the unstable equilibrium that governs the landscape, through the aesthetics of destruction. Since 1999 his projects have been acknowledged by grants and awards and have been exhibited in international museums. He carries out and manages editorial and corporate projects, specializing in decommissioning and infrastructure projects. He cooperates with public authorities and multidisciplinary groups for the study of landscape, with particular attention to geology, environment and memory of historical events. Along with the professional activity, he usually gives lectures and educational workshops and he is in charge of several cultural events. His works are to be found in private and public collections.
