Vittorio Santoro was born 1962 in Zürich (CH). He lives and works
among Paris (FR) and Zürich (CH).
Developing a work that is both conceptual and referential, Vittorio
Santoro's production takes the form of sound installations,
sculptures or drawings. His work, articulated around repetition and
literary forms, questions as much the inscription of the work in
space and in time as the ontological inscription of the individual
within his social space.
His work has been exhibited on the occasion of various exhibitions
in France: Espace Culturel Louis Vuitton (2013), Fondation Ricard
(2012), Centre Pompidou (2012), Rosascape (2011), CAPC (Bordeaux
2010), FRAC Aquitaine (2010), BF15 de Lyon (2011); but equally
abroad: Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin (2011), Kunstmuseum
Thun, Berlin (2006), ARTforum Berlin (2007), Tate
Modern, London (2006), Contemporary Art Center, Vilnius
(2009).
His works are part of many permanent collections: Kunstmuseum Bern
(CH), FNAC (Fonds National d'Art Contemporain, Paris), CAPC
(Bordeaux, FR), Burger Collection (CH), Hong Kong, FRAC Aquitaine
(FR), Graphische Sammlung der Schweizerischen Nationalbibliothek
(NB), Bern (CH), Kunstsammlung der Eidgenossenschaft, Bundesamt für
Kultur, Bern (CH), Kunstsammlung der Stadt Zürich (CH),
Kunstsammlung Kanton Zürich (CH).
