Guido Salvini
Lives and works in Turin (Italy). www.guidosalvini.com
Since 1980, after his art studies, he devoted himself to photography . After he started a long-lasting engagement
with set photography, which led him to work on the set of different Italian and international films and rewarded
him with several awards. Starting from 2000, he has been working also with video and realised numerous
backstage for film and television, while broadening his personal artistic research and practice from video art to
installation. At the same time, he increasingly approached performance art, wherein he mainly investigates and
deep- ens issues related to its documentation. Since 2013, he is co-curator of tpa (torinoPERFORMANCEART).
His current artistic practice engages with video, installation, photography and performance and it investi- gates
the relationships between art, artists and society, as well as it focuses on the stereotypes of exist- ence and the
themes of personal freedom.
