Biography

Born in Rome in 1989, lives and works in Rome. In his work he collects aesthetic fragments from the web with the intention of giving them a new existence. In his artworks the analogical practice of painting merges with the use of new media, with the Internet and digital culture, investigating the connections between the digital universe, parallel universes, and the dreamlike and introspective world of human beings. In his research there are different types of works, both of a traditional nature (painting, drawing and sculpture), and of a technological nature (artificial intelligence, VR, video, animation, 3D printing). In 2019 He has created an artificial intelligence called “Vasari”, which is able to emulate his creative and conceptual process and can assist him in composing sketches. Giannì exhibited in several national and international institutions, amongst which La Galleria d’Arte Moderna di Roma (Italy); the Swiss Institute of Rome (Italy); the Swiss Institute of Milan (Italy); MAXXI museum (Italy); American University Katzen Arts Center (Washington DC, USA); the residence of the Italian ambassador to the USA “Villa Firenze” (Washington DC, USA). In 2020 he is one of the founders of Spaziomensa, an artist-run space created to enhance the Roman artistic ferment.
