Biography
Luigi Archetti is born in 1955 in Brescia, Italy. He is a visual artist and musician. He lives and works in Zurich (CH)
Luigi Archetti’s artistic practice revolves around the interface between art and music, which he seeks to make tangible. – In his installative stagings he creates spaces that unfold multi-layered reference systems by introducing drawings, paintings, videos and sound – all acting and reacting with each other, by that means spanning a dense field of associations around audio-visual interfaces.
The vocabulary of music manifests itself not only in the ideas and the implementation of the works, but also in the direct use of objects and terminology from this field. Luigi Archetti stages the space as a medium in which different impulses – visual and sonic – meet.
