Andrea Pozzuoli showed his artistic talent at an early age, trying his hand at sculpture and painting. He grew up in an artistic environment that offered him countless stimuli, both avant-garde and traditionalist, that oriented him towards new horizons but also attracted him to the values of classicism. Pozzuoli then trained in the visual arts: he attended the State Art Institute in Cantù and completed his studies at the G. Terragni Art High School, where he started to photograph subjects to be transported to canvas. His gradual move towards photography, following in his father’s footsteps, culminated with his enrolment at the Italian Photography Institute (IIF) in Milan, where he experimented with various approaches – from fashion photography to portraiture and still life – to mould his personal artistic vision. In 2010, for the first Italian Photography Festival organized by the AFI – Italian Photography Archive – at the Fondazione Bandera per l’Arte in Busto Arsizio, he was one of the leading figures in the exhibition by students at the IIF, entitled Landscape – Vision from Young Photographers curated by Erminio Annunzi, photographer and teacher of photographic technique at the IIF. The following year he participated in MIA – Milan Image Art Fair, exhibiting at the IIF stand. In 2011 he was also one of the semi-finalists for the Cairo Prize in the photography section. Three years later – in 2014 – he returned to MIA – Milan Image Art Fair, where he had a solo stand in the ‘Proposta MIA’ section, at which he illustrated a subjective and relativistic world through the photographs in the It Is Not ’600 series.
