Juan Tardivo

Juan Tardivo is an Argentine-Italian painter and writer based in Munich. His practice investigates how painting generates knowledge through the relationship between body, space and language. Working across painting and writing, he develops long-term research projects in which each series constitutes a distinct stage of the same inquiry.

His works are held in private collections in Germany, Italy, Belgium and other European countries.
