Fulvio Leoncini

Fulvio Leoncini was born in Empoli (FI) in 1960, but lives and works in Santa Croce sull’Arno (Pisa).
Graduated from the State Art Institute of Cascina (Pisa), he began his exhibition activity in 1978.
In 1998 he resumed the study of engraving techniques and participated in the activities of the Villa Pacchiani Engraving Laboratory.
In 2000 he was among the founders of the Compagnia dei Liberi Incisori e Varia Umanità in Santa Croce sull’Arno.
In 2003 he was included in the multimedia project Terre del Rinascimento, curated by Silvia Bottinelli for the Leonardo Museum in Vinci.

He has participated in over 40 exhibitions, both individual and collective, earning numerous critical awards.

Always fascinated by the human being, who has constantly investigated his creative path, he creates works that must be admired with the heart, rather than with the eyes and the brain, to be kidnapped without (necessarily) understanding.

They wrote about his work:
Piero Gambassi, Nicola Nuti, Valerio Vallini, Nicola Micieli, Romano Masoni, Luciano Della Mea, Silvia Bottinelli, Marco Giovenale, Antonella Serafini, Antonio Bobò, Sandro Parmiggiani, Fabrizio Mugnaini and Claudio Crescentini

Fulvio Leoncini paints madness. Not only this, of being an artist, but also the “true” one, of those who suffer locked up and hidden in their own mind. He paints dreams, desires; he paints absences, the ghosts of history and memory.
From the first exhibition experiences, it was clear that the artist was taking root in a sort of existential denunciation, having clear that our time is, not only for his work, a shell that contains and cancels everything. Therefore, over the years he has transported every story into a body and given a body to every story: is it possible that in him the illusion of saving something or someone with a unique awareness persists, through a painting of content that contains painting?
