= Luca Pinelli = (Sarzana September 18, 1980) is a contemporary Italian painter.

Biography
Luca Pinelli was born in Sarzana, in the province of La Spezia, in September 1980. After completing his compulsory studies, he graduated from the Liceo Statale Mazzini in La Spezia and subsequently obtained a Master's Degree in Law at the University of Pisa. From an early age he has always shown a keen interest in painting and visual arts in general. The figurative apparatus of Luca Pinelli's painting is constituted and affirmed through a sort of exploratory poetics of the known visible world and the non-visible one, which inhabits the psychic and imaginary dimension. His works produce a sort of stratification of the conscious and the unconscious, which alternate in inspiring his creative act. The images restore to the sight the allusive meaning of an empirical path, which lives, feeds and regenerates itself in the sediments of memory. His artistic poetics develops a figurative vocation, which becomes the metamorphosis of a dream journey and evolves into the sphere of the surreal, opening unexpected and surprising "access doors", which confuse and mix truth and invention and give space to a submerged and still unexpressed perceptive world.

Among which it is worth mentioning the International Exhibition of Contemporary Art in Florence (Florence Biennale 2017), Spoleto Art meets Venice 2016, curated by prof Vittorio Sgarbi, Miami meets Milan 2016, curated by Prof Vittorio Sgarbi with the support and patronage of Consulate General of Italy In Miami and by the Mayor of Milan.
