Felipe Pantone
Born in Buenos Aires in 1986, Felipe Pantone is an Argentinian-Spanish artist who lives and works in Valencia, Spain. Initially drawn to graffiti, he studied Fine Arts in Valencia, where he graduated. His artistic practice explores movement, transformation and the digital, standing at the junction between an analog past and a digital future. Felipe Pantone approaches contemporary subjects using a scientific prism, superimposing and repeating geometric shapes, optical patterns and light spectra to create a form of abstraction inspired by kinetic artists such as Victor Vasarely and Carlos Cruz-Diez. Following in the latter's footsteps, he takes on projects in public spaces, embellishing walls, vehicles and even barges. Exhibited in renowned institutions such as the Long Beach Museum in the USA and the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, his work has also found its way into galleries such as the Danysz Gallery in Paris and Shanghai, and the Underdogs Gallery in Lisbon.
