Maurizio Elettrico (Naples, 1965) lives and works in Naples. After his studies in natural sciences, he focused his artistic research on the interdisciplinary relationship between philosophy, history and
iconography. His artistic practice is characterised by the variety of techniques, ranging from freehand drawing on fine art paper and fabrics, to collage, video, performance, writing, sculpture and
installations created from recovered materials. He expresses his elaborate ideas through a specific iconography described with a unique literary lexicon he created. In his oeuvre Elettrico re-invents the
world by inserting it into a new mythological reality constituting a combination of the sacred and the science-fiction. Harmonizing dissonant forms and materials, he opens up a fascinating path to a magical
world suspended between the past and the future, organised according to a mysterious and ideological taste for alchemy, that dissolves itself into a blend of intelligence, artistic creation, scientific and
technological knowledge.
Among the artist’s latest projects are: Cibum Deorum, included in the exhibition L’Albero della cuccagna, Nutrimenti dell’Arte curated by Achille Bonito Oliva, presented throughout Italy; Historia
Supernaturalis curated by Eugenio Viola, PAN Museum of Naples; An ephemeral banquet for the invisible guest: waiting for the bio-aristocrat curated by Chiara Valci Mazzara and Susanne Prinz Kunstverein
am Rosa-Luxemburg Platz in Berlin, in collaboration with Fondazione Morra; Convivium Aeternum curated by Marta Wroblewska, Ipogeo dei Cristallini in Naples and Imago mundi curated by Marta
Wroblewska at Oronsko Polish Sculpture Center.
Elettrico’s works are included in the permanent collections of numerous institutions, among which are: S.M.A.K. Museum Van Heden Daagse Kunst in Ghent (Belgium), The Madre – museo d’arte
contemporanea Donnaregina in Naples (Italy), Fondazione Morra in Naples (Italy) and Oronsko Polish Sculpture Center (Poland).
