STATEMENT:

Marco Bruzzone's practice is rooted in the research of cultural histories. The research process often results in the generation of ideas, methods and applications that produce art. His work encompasses drawing, print, painting, sculpture, performance and installations. A formal lightness of touch, predilection for the ephemeral and the importance of humour are underlying principles of Marco Bruzzone’s work.
