Biography:

Louis Sidoli comes from an artistic Anglo Italian family and displayed an aptitude for art at an early age. However, rather than taking the traditional art school route, he carved out a successful career in the car industry.

His affinity for premium materials, craftsmanship and attention to detail in his artworks is a result of his product design background and differentiates him from most other artists. Sidoli draws on this experience of industrial manufacturing techniques to fine tune each step of the process in his work, by customising and integrating every detail of the artwork and its presentation from the level of polishing applied to aluminium surfaces to the electrical design of his neon works.

After his debut art exhibition in 2007, he was swiftly signed by the UK's largest art dealer and publisher Washington Green Fine art, who distributed his work through an extensive network of approximately 100 galleries, including the renowned Harrods in London.

Outside the world of art galleries, his work has been exhibited at many prestigious locations such as the Commonwealth Club, The Barbican Centre, The Football Museum, Aston Martin Mayfair, “Laylow” private members club and the legendary Abbey Road Studios.
