The Health Grotto exhibits during 2022 and 2023 the works of Marco Tamburro
Marco Tamburro was born in Perugia in 1974.
After graduating in Architecture and Furniture at the Art Institute in his city, he moved to Milan in 1994 and enrolled in the Scenography Course at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts. Having come into contact with the Milanese artistic environment, he began collaborating with photographers and set designers as an assistant. Not a random choice, since Marco Tamburro has already developed a deep interest in the large theatrical spaces, within which he imagines and gives shape to pictorial panels of imposing dimensions, letting his visionary imagination run wild.
Tamburro remains fascinated above all by painting and its great expressive power. At a time when people question where this art form is going, he is invaded by an expressive power capable of translating simple images into a communicative medium. Marco Tamburro reflects on the speculation and versatility of the pictorial form, which is capable of interacting with other artistic languages such as theater, photography, furniture, architecture, and all that is needed to create a stage set.
In Milan he is exhibiting for the first time: his works appear in galleries and alternative spaces in the urban fabric, linked primarily to fashion and design circles.
Having always been attracted to Rome for its countless artistic beauties and hectic metropolitan life, so different from that of Milan, Tamburro moved to the capital. His passion for theater can feed here copiously: the artist collaborates with several theater companies, devotes himself full-time to painting, founds a cultural association that deals exclusively with visual arts, and in 1999 graduates from the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome.
