Fabio Pietrantonio was born in Turin (Italy) on 27 November 1966. He began his artistic experience by organizing themed parties and events in Ibiza (Spain), Porto Cervo (Sardinia) and Milan, planning and creating all the artwork for the decorations. In these places, starting from the early 1990s, the first participations in collective exhibitions with other Italian artists also began.
Also in Sardinia he had the opportunity to meet the sculptor Gaspare da Brescia, becoming his assistant for about three years, participating in the creation of works of religious subjects commissioned by the Vatican Museums, an experience that would mark Pietrantonio’s first contact with sacred iconography and his autonomy and original approach to biblical symbols.
Travel and long stays in Australia proved to be very beneficial for his artistic growth. He soon came into contact with groups of artists and schools in Sydney and Byron Bay but it was the encounter with the native populations that strongly influenced his education. Pietrantonio begins his personal research by observing the symbolism and spirituality of the Australian aborigines; drawing from a civilization still linked to a primitive lifestyle and from an intact culture uncontaminated by progress and industrialization, he becomes fully aware of what will be the constituent elements of his poetic vision centered on a rediscovered inner balance and a harmonious relationship with nature.
