Works by Pierpaolo Maso
Pierpaolo Maso was born in Dolo, in the province of Venice, in 1990.
His first approach to photography occurred during high school, when he decided to attend the Art Institute in Venice.
After finishing high school, thanks to some savings, he bought his first camera and, following this choice, he enrolled at the Venice Academy of Fine Arts, with a specialization in NTA (New Technologies of Art).
In 2015, after graduating with a Bachelor's degree, he began travelling. On 8 July 2015, he was the first to arrive at the site of the F4 tornado that struck the Riviera del Brenta. Some of his shots on that occasion were published by national newspapers and shared by important personalities in the world of art and photography.
Also in 2015, he was assigned, by the important Italian company Lavazza, to be the photographer during the 'Meeting of the Golden Beans' in Porto Maso (Malta).
From that moment on, he began a period of fervent activity in the Veneto nightlife and the organisation of events and photographic exhibitions throughout Italy. In 2017, he held two solo exhibitions in Bologna, including "A Little View / A Big View", an exhibition that presents the artist's point of view as well as his photographic interpretation of the city's street life.
In 2019, the first solo exhibition is organised in Barcelona, at SB Diagonal Zero.
Finally, in 2022, he came into contact with Larin Group, for which he realised a reportage in the lands of Tuscany.
