Andrea Oliva was born in Milan on February 15, 1973.
He attended the classical lyceum, then followed his instincts, leaving the gymnasium and enrolling in the Caravaggio Art High School where he graduated in 1992, and subsequently at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts. He plays in several musical groups (drums and guitar); simultaneously he attends studios of already established artists and begins a long period of collaboration with some of them, from whom he learns the specific techniques of sculpture. He also worked for a period at the historic plaster workshop/gipsoteca “Fumagalli e Dossi.” He begins a steady series of solo exhibitions, the first in 1994, and also participates in group exhibitions; he takes part in sculpture symposia and competitions; becomes a member artist of the Museo della Permanente in Milan; he also dedicates himself to painting and to writing poetry, some of which are published in specialist journals.

On commission, he created the plaques for the doctoral degrees in Chemical Sciences and in Industrial Chemistry for the University of Milan in 2004 and for the University of Insubria (Varese-Como) in 2005.

He has created several public monuments; one of the most important is a sepulchral monument located in Milan’s Cimitero Maggiore.
