View full bio

The photographic work of Fernando Maselli explores different aspects of the formalism, deepening the aesthetic and concept as core values. The main focus of his current research revolves around the concept of the Sublime, the restrained fear to the beauty of the rugged landscape and the stateliness linked to divinity. His work is a solitary journey into the vastness with constant references to classical painting, literature, philosophy and aesthetics. His intention is to put the viewer in front of a sublime spectacle that makes them question about our concept of contemporary landscape.

His latest works Hierophanies, Artificial Infinite and Annunciation are closely related to the natural landscape, and within them, through documentation and conceptualization processes, tries to captivate the viewer in a moral and sentimental reflection on nature. They are series in which the artist lives closer to the essence of untouched nature, to which access through long expeditions looking for environments where no human elements around it allow him to investigate the concepts of his work.

Born in Buenos Aires in 1978, he studied Fine Arts and later moved to Madrid where he continues his artistic training. His work has won numerous awards including the SPD - Society of Publication Designers (New York), the W-CA Contemporary Landscape Photography Open (UK), the Youth Arts Award from the Complutense University (Spain), ITAÚ Fine Arts Award (Argentina). His work has been selected to participate in the Copenhagen Photo Festival (Denmark), NordArt 2014 (Germany), 13th Mostra Internacional Gas Natural Fenosa of Spain, the 15th China International Photographic Art Exhibition, and the International Biennial of Photography Fotonoviembre (Spain). Maselli has made exhibitions in art galleries and museums such as Luis Adelantado (Mexico), Mad is Mad (Madrid), at the CEART - Tomás y Valiente Art Center (Spain), the Alicante Institute of Culture Juan Gil Albert (Spain), MAC - Contemporary Art Museum Coruña (Spain), and his wok has been in several art fairs such as OFF Art Fair Brussels, ZONA MACO (Mexico), ARCO (Spain) and ArtMadrid (Spain).
