Bernardo Peruta was born in Bergamo (IT) in 1973.
Education:
– Castellini School of Plastic Arts in Como (IT)
– Art High School Andrea Fantoni in Bergamo (IT)
In 2004, he moved to Nice, France, where he organized his first solo exhibition. Upon returning to Italy in 2006, he continued to participate in various contemporary art exhibitions, both solo and group shows, including major ones in Milan, Parma, Verona and abroad in France, Germany, Belgium, and New York.
Bernardo Peruta reflects on the limit between reality and virtuality, observing advancements in the field of artificial intelligence. His artistic philosophy embraces the use of a unique combination of modern materials and traditional painting techniques making his art both innovative and classical at the same time. His works challenge our perception of reality in an era where the distinction between real and virtual becomes increasingly blurred. His work stands out for the use of multiple color overlays using mixed techniques on micro-perforated metal panels.
Chromatic contrasts play an important role in Peruta’s artistic conception, creating a dynamic effect that allows the viewers to approach the artwork from different perspectives. This is a concept that Peruta also embraces metaphorically, as reality cannot be captured in a single frame but changes depending on the viewpoint. Among his most significant works are those that explore the concept of perpetually moving reality and space. Through indefinite identity and gender, he represents the universal symbol of humanity, constantly evolving and conditioned by time, reality, emotions and society.
