Mauro
Benzi

Born in Rimini (Italy) in 1976, he attended the Mengaroni State Institute of Art in Pesaro in the goldsmith's section. Subsequently he moved to Valenza Po' to continue his studies in Jevelry and Gems Setter Specialization, the latter Art which has also been his main work for several years of his life. His pictorial experimentation and research have been very articulated over the years, going from an informal art approach to something more and more minimal and geometric.

In 2013 he is given the first place in the G.B. Salvi International Art Prize in Sassoferrato. His most recent cycle of works is entitled “Nowhere” and takes its cue from the idea of a territory that does not exist and cannot be placed in our current dimension. A place / non place made up of geometrics shapes and dystopian architectures that take inspiration from the architectural schools of Rationalism and Brutalist style. The series is divided in two “sub-categories” that simultaneously analyze both urban and natural landscapes, the two dimensions in which human beings normally immersed.
