Lorenzo
Casali

Lorenzo Casali works primarily on site-specific projects, which are based on an analysis of the complex network of relationships that exist in a given place and on a study of the cultural, social, political and economic layers that define it. Since the early 2000s, he has taken part in awards, screenings, exhibitions and residencies in Italy and across Europe. 

In addition to his artistic research, he also teaches; he currently lectures on Photographic Documentation at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome and on Editing Techniques at the Carrara Academy of Fine Arts in Bergamo.
