About
The function and the life of an artist must follow a parallel path, observing this principle. Mario Prencipe gives his works an additional meaning of “intentional casualness” in harmony with the almost fortuitous character of demonstrating his choices. The works are carried out in many takes, during which the artist searches the “casual” pictorial effect for a possible “cause” for the articulation and development of the composition.
Mario Prencipe was born in Sesto San Giovanni (Milan) in 1965, where he graduated from Arts High School in 1983. For decades he has led a wandering artist’s lifestyle, during which he has held exhibitions at the institutional level at the National Museum of Nicaragua inManagua, the National Gallery of Costa Rica in San José, at the Miraflores Museum of Art and Archaeology in the City of Guatemala and at the Museum of Fine Arts of Komsomolsk-Na-Amur in Russia.
He is represented by the Shen Chang Gallery in Hang Zhou, China
