Roberto Ghezzi

Roberto Ghezzi, visual artist, was born in Cortona, Tuscany, Italy, and from a very young age dedicated himself to the landscape through the usual pictorial means. In the early 2000s, he presented to the public new creations, which were born from studies and experiments on natural, often uncontaminated places, and whose title Naturografie© has in itself the founding concept of both the final result and the process. The latter is an integral part of the work, in a journey to the origin of the relationship between artist and nature, where the support is a space of communion between them. The artist creates with Water and Nature, but at the same time oversees every phase of creation: from the determination of the initial variables, to the time factor, to the final form.

Roberto participated in the Aquamour Festival Venezia 2025 edition with his project “ăquae naturografie” (courtesy: EContemporary and Start Cultura), which stems from the desire to investigate the Venice’s Lagoon in all its aspects, and intervene both in the most urbanized areas such as the Arsenal, and in more natural areas such as the WWF Valle Averto Oasis and Falconera private island or in renaturalized areas such as the sandbanks south of Venice. During the festival, he exhibited some pictures of his works and also held a conference called “Naturografie in the laguna: research between art, science and sustainability”. – B. Albasio
