ABOUT DAVIDE
Davide Pepe was born in Italy in 1970 and he lives and works in Bologna as an independent artist. Since 1995, he's been developing, filming and producing video art, dance videos, experimental short films and photography, collaborating also with other important avant-garde artists, producers and musicians like Diamanda Galás, Andrew Liles, James Mackay, Steven Stapleton (Nurse with Wound), David Tibet (Current 93) and ZimmerFrei.
Over the past 16 years his artistic path has evolved around the possibility of visualizing the physical concept of spacetime continuum.
Davide also works as editor, compositor, sound designer and, since 2016, he teaches video editing at the fine arts academy of Bologna.
He has recently been selected by Creative Folkestone for a two-week artist residency at Derek Jarman's Prospect Cottage, in Dungeness. His video art works have been shown at the Julia Stoschek Foundation (Dusseldorf), at the Navy Officer's Club in Venice, at the State Archives in Florence, at the Performance Space New York, at the MCA (Chicago), at the Walker Art Center (Minneapolis), at the Barbican Center (London), at the Charlottenborg Gallery (Copenhagen), at Spazio C21 (Reggio Emilia).
Two of his short films ‘Little Boy’ and ‘Gardens of Light’ were selected in the Berlin Film Festival competition.
