About
If everyone knows the world through his body, every act of knowledge is first and foremost an act of love. We know because we love. At the center of Luca Di Luzio’s artistic research is definitely this meaning of body but not only. Atlas Ego Imago Mundi comes from the assumption of the centrality of the body as a primordial force and creator of individual knowledge (I- my body) and collective knowledge (I- the body of the world). The artistic conception simplifies not only the metaphor of the body as an instrument of knowledge but does more, elevating it to the act of creating imaginary lands born from the body itself. The maps of Atlas Ego Imago Mundi are made from the imprint of some parts of the artist’s body returned to the paper and then elaborated in detail until the eye recognizes the appearance which is typical of the map. The body then at the same time creates me, because I know the world -the reality that surrounds me- through it but also the other, a world outside of me, not the same as me. The body invents a language not only artistic but pictorial, giving rise to a real writing (graphia) of the human because of man himself (ánthrōpos). Luca Di Luzio’s works are then anthropographies, born from the signs -the marks- of the artist’s body language.

Luca Di Luzio was born in Rome in 1986, where he lives and works. He received his BFA from the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence and his MFA from the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome. In 2013 he had two residencies: C.A.M.A.C. in Marnay sul Seine (France) and at the Gallery Hommes in Rotterdam (Holland). In 2015 he began his Atlas Ego Imago Mundi project, impressing his body in paint and then onto large sheets of paper, creating an imaginary atlas and maps. The theme of this work is the human body, its profound ambiguity, and its role as the main subject of our experiencing of the world and at the same time as a part of the world, coming from the same substance. In 2016 the series was exhibited at the MACRO Museum of Contemporary Art of Rome, and at the Walls Museum of Rome. On September 2017 the series has been exhibited in a solo exhibition at the Auditorium Parco della Musica in Rome. Luca Di Luzio’s artistic research explores the unclear relationship between controllable and uncontrollable, calculus and random.
