Salvatore Astore was born in 1957 in San Pancrazio Salentino, in the Province of Brindisi, moving to Turin with his family at a young age, where he still lives and works today. Throughout secondary school he studied art and later graduated from the Albertina Academy of Fine Arts. Astore has been active on the Italian and international scene since the 1980s, with his preferred artistic languages being sculpture, painting, and drawing. His diverse body of works correspond to different historical periods and existential phases, characterised by a profound desire to experiment with techniques and materials related to the urban industrial context, as well as by a specific interest in the condition and destiny of humankind.
