ANGELO BELLOBONO

Social Thinker
ITALY

Angelo Bellobono is a visual artist and a ski coach. The ice and mountains are metaphorical elements in his work; ice representing the planet’s archival memory, and mountains depicted as hinges and not barriers.
He has designed and implemented the project Atla(s)Now based on cultural contamination between art and the inhabitants of the Atlas Mountains of Morocco.
He participated in the XV Quadrennial of Rome and the IV and V Marrakech Biennale and exhibited in public and private spaces such as the Fondazione Volume and Wunderkammern in Rome, Envoy Gallery in New York and Changing Role in Naples. In 2005 he won the Celeste Prize for painting.
