2024

Fabio Coruzzi was born in Foggia, Italy, in 1975 and currently lives in Los Angeles. Remarking on his work in conjunction with his perspective on urban environments, Fabio states, "I wish that each painting I make should be like a poem of the place where I've been. I wish to become a poet of our time, like somebody would tell. "I've been there", but telling that my way, telling the audience that, no matter where we are, in a boulevard or a restaurant, each single place is like an empty box that needs to be filled with the intense energy of our existence. Each place leaves a mark, like a scar, inside us. I wish that scar would become poetry." Coruzzi's work has been widely collected and exhibited internationally, with great acclaim for his faithfully candid approach to city life and human idiosyncrasy." It’s a melting pot of different gestures, different perspectives. Mixed media mold together these different perspectives, creating the urban environment. Contemporary culture is made of controversy, modernity includes ugliness, imperfection, and contamination, anything that creates texture."
