Biography
Mino Di Vita studied set design at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan and later graduated in Philosophy and Letters at the University of Bologna.
Photographer and artist since the mid-eighties he has been photographing society in its many aspects, focusing his interest on the connections between man and the places where he is linked, investigating the resulting atmospheres. He has carried out research projects on Venice, Milan, Tokyo, New York, Havana and other cities around the world. He has exhibited in galleries, institutions and international art fairs and many of his works are collected in private and institutional collections.
He is the author of several photographic books and combines his personal artistic research with a path of curatorial experimentation that since 2010 engages him in the design and implementation of exhibition projects for the enhancement of emerging talents not only Italian. In 2018 he founded Photo Project Pro, a laboratory of investigation into trends in contemporary artistic photography, conceived to design and implement exhibitions, seminars and masters in Italy and abroad.
