Read MoreAnna Skoromnaya (b. 1986, Minsk, Belarus) is an artist who lives and works in Genoa, Italy. She is a graduate of the Florence Academy of Fine Arts (2013) and lecturer at the Academy of Fine Arts of Sanremo.
In her genre-bending site-specific installations and video sculptures, in which physical forms and digital technologies simultaneously coexist and collide, Skoromnaya employs dualities of meanings and shapes and juxtaposes materials and symbols to address the theme of the paradoxes of contemporary society.
She has won and been shortlisted for various national and international awards: winner of the Art Nova 100 Special Prize at the 15th Arte Laguna Prize and winner of the Special Mention at the Trento Art Prize 2022; Exibart Prize 2021 and 16th Arte Laguna Prize finalist; representing Italy at the JCE Contemporary Art Biennale 2019-2021 and overall winner of the Arteam Cup 2017. She has had solo exhibitions at the Unipol Group’s CUBO museum (Bologna), Must Gallery (Lugano), ‘The Others’ art fair (Turin) and Trento Art Festival. Recent group exhibitions include shows at the Arsenale (Venice), the Guardian Art Center (Beijing), Le Beffroi de Montrouge (Paris), the Art Building in Vrå – The Engelund Collection (Hjørring, Denmark), the Museu de l'Empordà (Figueres, Spain), the Museu Municipal Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso (Amarante, Portugal), as well as the exhibition ‘Stand For Girls’ at Fabbrica del Vapore (Milan) and the curatorial project ‘SAATCHI SCREEN’ at the Saatchi Gallery (London).
