Pablo Chiereghin Bio
(last update 03-01-2012)
Pablo Chiereghin works with non conventional photography, actions and performance. His research is inspired by daily-life-curiosity and by social and political dynamics. His practice is conceived in dialog with the public and plays with the interferences between medium and significance. His work, and the processes from which it have been generated, leads the viewer on situational paths and multilayer meanings where the key role is assigned more than to a subject or an object, to the synthesis of an idea.
Born in 1977 in Adria (Ro) Italy. He studied Communication in Bologna where he started working as copywriter. He worked as creative in Madrid and Trieste. Since 2004 he collaborate with ITS International Talent Support international contest for photographers. In 2007 he finished a master in Art and Photography at Central St. Martins, University of Arts of London. Since 2008 he lives and works in Vienna where he is represented by Anzenberger Gallery.
