BIOGRAPHY OF THE ARTIST
Valentino Massimo is a 19-year-old Italo-Swiss artist whose work bridges cultures, generations, and disciplines. Splitting his time between Switzerland and Italy, Valentino brings a distinctive European sensibility to his creative practice , one rooted in experimentation, identity, and the power of urban expression.
After completing a year of studies at the Istituto Marangoni in Milan, Valentino’s work has already reached international audiences. In 2023, he exhibited at the Physics Library of ETH Zurich, blending artistic intuition with scientific atmosphere. In September 2024, he took part in Meeting of Styles in Chicago , one of the most influential street art gatherings in the world. Later that year, in November 2024, his pieces were showcased at the Marlè Fashion Show in Milan, where art met haute couture.
Currently, Valentino is developing a community-based project for Summer 2025 in Winterthur, Switzerland, focused on giving Gen Z a voice through temporary public art walls. The project is proudly supported by the Kultur Komitee / Stefanini Stiftung, emphasizing his growing role as a young cultural connector.
In July 2025, Valentino will begin his Swiss military service , another chapter in his evolving journey, where discipline and creativity will continue to inform his unique artistic narrative.
