Biography
Giorgio Piccinini, following his first artisitic inspirations, began studying drums and percussions at a school in the Rome province in 1989. In September of 1991 he formally began studying art at the renowned Artistic High School of Rome, in the heart of the city (Via di Ripetta). His first works were figurative designs using grafite and pastel pencils on paper but since 1995 has gradually simplified the forms, getting away from realistic representations and approaching abstract art. Initially his designs were geometric almost divisionistic, and later very informal. In 1994 and 1995 he participated in collective exhibitions of the school. After graduation he decided to apply art to sound and in 1996 began specializing in post-production and digital audio manipulation at the Italian Institute of Musical Information. Even today he nurtures his passion for musical production on the same level as his passion for paintings, Photo-Art, Digital-Art and graphics. The actually art of Giorgio Piccinini is founded on chromatic-material abstractism, a result of the study of somatic drawings of the most important contemporary artists of today, soberly combined with the intention of communicating a state-of-mind, sensation or more simply, visual pleasure using color and material.
