Friedrich Andreoni
Friedrich Andreoni (*1995 in Pesaro, IT) grew up between Italy and the Middle East and lives in Berlin.
In 2020, he was awarded a DAAD fellowship, which allowed him to pursue his research at the sound department of the School of The Art Institute of Chicago. In 2022 Andreoni was the only visual artist to receive a special mention at the Pontifical Academy of Virtuosi del Pantheon Prize of the Vatican City, and in 2023 he won the Ducato Art Prize for the Academy section. He recently inaugurated a series of installations in public space entitled Arco, Arché, Archetipo as part of the programming of Pesaro Capital of Culture 2024.
Friedrich Andreoni is currently one of the first artists-in-residence at the Museo Novecento in Florence and a master student of Susan Philipsz at the HfBK Dresden, Germany. In 2025 he will be artist-in-residence at Alchemilla, Bologna. His works are in public and private collections.
