Tancredi Fornasetti - Senza titolo

Tancredi Fornasetti exhibits in important Italian and international galleries.

Tancredi Fornasetti was born in Rome in 1983, where he still lives and works. A graduate in Decoration from the Accademia di Belle Arti di Roma under the guidance of Professor Michele Cossyro, he has developed from the outset a strongly personal painting language that interweaves geometry, architecture, and a deep sensitivity to color.

His work falls within the broad horizon of Abstract Art, but renews its coordinates with a contemporary and visionary approach. In his pieces, lines and planes multiply into perspectives and complex structures that evoke imaginary urban spaces, impossible architectures, and metaphysical geometries. The artist draws on both the rationalism of the 1930s and the lessons of De Chirico, filtering them through a sensibility marked by digital experience and the visual culture of our time.

For Nasetti’s painting does not merely describe: it elaborates and transforms. References to art history—from Mondrian to Kandinsky, from Malevich to Soldati—blend with the suggestions of cinema, scenography, and virtual reality, giving rise to a visual syntax that unites analytical rigor with emotional impulse. His “contemporary skylines,” realized strictly by freehand, result from a balance between order and chaos, between geometric construction and instinctive gesture.

The relationship between space and color is the heart of his research: a constant dialectic between opposing forces—centripetal and centrifugal, analytical and synthetic—that generates a continuous visual vibration. His surfaces open like doors, streets, and windows toward worlds that contradict and support each other at the same time, guiding the gaze along infinite paths.

From 2006 to today, Fornasetti has exhibited in numerous solo and group shows in Italy and abroad, collaborating with galleries, museums, and noted curators. Among the venues that have hosted his works are Galleria Mucciaccia, Galleria Mario Giusti HQ in Milan, Virus Art Gallery, and Galleria Medina in Rome, in addition to international projects curated by La Maison de La Petite Sara in the Republic of San Marino. Over the years he has participated in exhibitions such as Affordable Art Fair, Tiferno Comics, ArtExpo Arezzo, and initiatives curated by figures like Achille Bonito Oliva, Vincenzo Mollica, and Francesco Gallo Mazzeo.

An educated and curious artist, Fornasetti continues to interrogate painting as a living language, in constant transformation. In his works memory and innovation, introspection and experimentation coexist, creating a visual universe in which geometry becomes emotion and space becomes storytelling.
