Riccardo Previdi
Biography
Riccardo Previdi was born in Milan, Italy (1974), and he lives and works between Zürich, Switzerland, and Milan, Italy.
Riccardo Previdi studied Architecture at the Politecnico in Milan as well as Visual Arts at the Accademia delle Belle Arti di Brera, Milan. These two different studies led him to an interest in the relationship between art and project.
His artistic research questions the possibilities and limits of technological and scientific thought, exposing the complex mechanisms that lie behind the objects and images that surround us in everyday life. By recording, sometimes amplifying, the images produced in excess by our society, the work of Riccardo Previdi wants to raise questions in the viewer about the promises of progress and social redemption made by modernity.
His work was presented in different international group and solo shows such as at Kunst Raum Riehen, 2023; Museion Bolzano, 2023 and 2018; PAC Milan, 2015; at Castello di Rivoli and Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Torino, 2011; at MARTa Herford; Kunstverein Bielefeld, 2008. Further he participated to the Moskow Bienial, Manifesta 7, and T1 Torino Triennale. Solo Shows at Galleria Francesca Minini, Milan, 2022; Quartz Studio, Torino, 2018; Villa Croce, Genua, 2017; Kunstverein Arnsberg, 2011.
