Collection: ZERO Francesco
Francesco Zero, head of the Italian delegation, is a major figure in the contemporary art scene.
As artistic director of the Palazzo Rospigliosi in Zagarolo, he directed the Toy Museum in Rome.
Founder of Studiozero, active between Rome and Paris, he has been advocating for over thirty years a vibrant dialogue between the arts.
Today, as artistic director of the Purificato.Zero gallery and editor of the Art page of " Corriere di Roma", he remains first and foremost a sculptor.
His works, exhibited throughout the world, celebrate imbalance as a truth of being.
Between fall and rise, his bronzes reveal the fragile moment when the soul discovers itself.
At the crossroads of symbolism and figurative surrealism, his work remains deeply rooted in the Italian tradition.
"The soul is beautiful only when it is naked," he confides, summarizing his entire approach.
Also a writer, he published Tra le note di un sogno in 2025, an intimate and poetic narrative.
An artist of conviction, Francesco Zero sees creation as an ethic, a resistance, an act of fidelity to humanity.
His presence at our exhibition embodies this rare alliance between high standards, generosity and light.
