Giorgio Griffa in studio al lavoro nel 2021

Giorgio Griffa

Born in Turin in 1936, Giorgio Griffa began painting as a child. His own personal take on painting began to emerge at the end of the 1960s, with signs and lines that could “belong to any hand” and colors bearing the memory of the Mediterranean and Italian fresco painting, on unstretched and unprimed canvases painted on the floor or on paper.

Over fifty years of conceptual continuity in painting, together with his insightful thought on art as a means of knowledge, have led his works to feature in exhibitions and collections in contemporary art galleries around the world, from the Tate Modern to the Centre Pompidou.
