About Pier Giorgio De Pinto
Pier Giorgio De Pinto is a trans-disciplinary artist, a performer, a curator, a theorist and a media trainer. He strongly uses new media as a “thinking media”, in which he involves the audience by creating performative experiences and immersive environments. His projects are usually made with other author's collaborations – musicians, choreographers and artists – coming from different cultural backgrounds and experiences, styles and identity genres. These collaborations enable De Pinto to undertake new and radical experimental projects, in order to stimulate a deep discussion about stereotypes and prejudices, and to ask awkward questions in the framework of culture, politics and religion.
