French-Italian artist, Vincent Ceraudo (1986) studied Fine Art at Villa Arson, in Nice, France, where he received his MFA. He has been a Skoweghan school of painting and sculpture fellow, in Maine, U.S.A, and an alumni of the Ateliers, in Amsterdam.

He works in video and films, drawings, photographs and installation and has received several grants and awards including recently the establish artists stipendium from Mondriaan fonds in Amsterdam, and the C.N.A.P, in Paris. His video works is part of collections such as the Frac Provence Alpes-Côte d’Azur in Marseille and the In Between Art Film collection in Roma, Italy.

His works focuses on the experience and limits of the body, as well as the mechanisms of our sensory devices. At the very heart of his practice, occurs the fascination and the desire of the human to temporarily escape the influence of the body and the real.

Vincent Ceraudo’s investigation operates at the confluence of the ideas of magic and techniques, history of colonialism and modernity, architecture, but also states of consciousness through cognitive capitalism. His works are about capturing a moment when the feeling of reality puts us in a state of questioning the perception of reality itself. They probes the acceptable boundaries of human perception, as an attempt to reveal what could exist outside the rational dimension of our experience. A way for the artist, to see how real is real ?

His work has been exhibited internationally, including recently in 2020 during Art Rotterdam at Van Nelle Fabriek, at Van Zijll Langhout gallery in Amsterdam, in 2019 at LAM Musée d’art Moderne, d’art contemporain et d’art Brut, Lille in France, at MAXXI Museo in Roma in Italy, at Performance Space New York, USA, during Rencontres Internationales Paris/ Berlin, in 2018 at Lo Schermo dell’Arte Film Festival in Firenze Italy, at Macro Museo d’Arte Contemporanea Roma, Italy, at De Ateliers, in Amsterdam, at la station gare des Mines in Paris, in 2017 at the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Torino Italy, at the Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris, at the Art Center of the Villa Arson in Nice, at the Centre Pompidou in Paris (Prospectif Cinema), at the Skoweghan program space in New York, as a guest artist during the 62ème salon de Montrouge in Paris, in 2016 at the Skoweghan School of Painting and Sculpture open USA, at the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris, at the Fresnoy Studio National of Contemporary Arts, in 2015 at the Palais de Tokyo, as a guest artist of Art-O-Rama, the international contemporary art fair in Marseille, France, at the Fundation Botin, Santander in Spain, at the MUMA, Monash University Museum in Melbourne, Australia.
