Roberto Fiasella was born on January 22, 1972, to a Tuscan father and a Puglian mother in Saint Croix, Switzerland. Shortly after his birth, his parents moved to Castelnuovo Magra, in the province of La Spezia. From early childhood, a passion for horses emerged \u2013 one that would shape his entire life as well as his artistic vision. <\/p>

He pursued his art studies in nearby Carrara, and it was during that period that he first approached sculpture and painting.<\/p>

In 1996, he met the Costa Rican sculptor Jorge Jim\u00e9nez Deredia<\/strong>, with whom he began a fruitful collaboration. Working in the Master\u2019s studio, he learned the secrets of this complex art form and structured his thinking by embracing Deredia\u2019s vision, based on a cosmic conception of life<\/strong> in which matter exists in a constant state of transformation, human experience represents only one phase within a broader cycle of consciousness, and death is merely a change of form. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

It was in this period that he produced numerous drawings through which many of his formal intuitions emerged \u2013 intuitions that would later lead to complex sculptures such as “Lovers”.<\/p>

His daily contact with horses enabled him to investigate their form, study their most distinctive gestures, and understand their most intimate secrets \u2013 transforming them into art.<\/p>

Over time, his passion for art and equestrian sports merged into one single, overarching life project.<\/p>

Since 2022, he has exhibited his works consistently, receiving broad and positive recognition within the field.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Born in Saint Croix (Switzerland) on January 22, 1972, to a Tuscan father and a Apulian mother, he lives in Castelnuovo Magra, in the province of La Spezia.<\/p>

Graduated from the \u201cArtemisia Gentileschi\u201d Art High School in Carrara, he met and studied with sculptor Jim\u00e9nez Deredia<\/strong>. It was in this master\u2019s workshop that he developed his technical skills, and through long dialogues, he broadened his cultural education and shaped his thinking, embracing Deredia<\/strong>\u2019s conception based on a cosmic vision of existence<\/strong>\u2014where matter is in a continuous state of transmutation, human experience is a phase of awareness within the entire cycle, and death is merely a change of form.<\/p>

Although he has been active for years, he only recently decided to exhibit consistently. After winning the \u201cMichelangelo Buonarroti\u201d International Prize<\/strong>
In Seravezza in 2022, in 2023 he held solo exhibitions at Forte dei Marmi at the \u201cUgo Guidi\u201d House-Museum (\u201cHorses: Between Myth and Contemporary\u201d) and in Vezzano Ligure at the \u201cCasa Spezia\u201d Garden (\u201cEqui in Horto\u201d).<\/p>

The impact has been extensive and positive within the specific field, even at the national level, including participation by invitation in group exhibitions\u2014such as in Rome at the \u201cAmedeo Modigliani\u201d Foundation with \u201cPsyche\u201d and in Massa at the \u201cUgo Guidi 2\u201d Museum with \u201cDifferent Is Not\u2026 Observing
Reality Differently.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In 2024, he participated in \u201c8 Sguardi d\u2019Autore\u201d in Milan at the Museum of Art and Science, and he is included in the Encyclopedia of Italian Art<\/strong> and the Modern Art Catalog by Editoriale Giorgio Mondadori.<\/strong><\/p>

Extensive coverage and articles have also appeared in specialist magazines, such as Rivista20 in Turin. His major solo exhibition \u201cCavallinit\u00e0, The Magic of Form,\u201d<\/strong> curated by Lodovico Gierut and Marilena Cheli Tomei, with a comprehensive catalog, took place in June\u2013July 2024 at the Villa of the Fondazione Versiliana in Marina di Pietrasanta, organized by the Gierut Artistic-Documentary Archive Committee in collaboration with the Foundation. <\/p>

Also in Marina di Pietrasanta, at the Green House Space in Versiliana, the Promo-Terr Association included three of his sculptures in the group exhibition \u201cTrittico\u201d in July 2024, followed by participation in a subsequent group show linked to the Palio di Siena, organized in part by AG Art Gallery. It is also worth noting the exhibition of several of his sculptures in Lucca for \u201cHomage to Botero\u201d at Palazzo Guinigi, from December 2024 to January 2025.<\/p>

Also noteworthy in 2024 is his successful solo exhibition in October at Palazzo Grimaldi della Meridiana in Genoa.<\/p>

In 2025, a solo exhibition will be held at the \u201cLuciana Matalon\u201d Gallery in Milan, titled \u201cNo Time No Space.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
