ANDREA PINCHI

Born into a family of pipe organbuilders, he began to paint as a child with Nereo Ferraris (1911-1975) his aunt’s companion, Maria Pia Pinchi. Since 2005 he has begun to experiment with new expressive forms with materials coming from the restoration of ancient pipe organs, the Pincbau, as it was defined by Maurizio Coccia in 2011.

Infact, after the exhibition “Pincbau” at the Civic Museum of Treviso curated by Gianluca Marziani with three-dimensional works, in October-November of the same year he presented the monumental painting “Eutropia” at the Macro Museum in Rome curated by Giuditta Nidiaci.
