Biography
Biography
Modin was born in the city of Bergamo, Italy, in 1963. He grew artistically in Liceo Artistico Marco Polo high school, in Venice, where he was taught by Ferruccio Bortoluzzi, his art professor, who had great influence in the development of Modin's work. In 1982, he took part in his first group exhibition, hosted in Venice by Fondazione Bevilacqua la Masa, where the jury unanimously recognized his creativity and talent. He showed his works in many Jazz festivals in Italy and around Europe, enriching his artistic path thanks to many collaborations with famous musicians. In 2012, he prepared a personal exhibition at Teatro dal Verme (Milan) together with Yusef Lateef. Until today, Mauro Modin has been the one and only visual artist to stage an exhibition inside La Fenice theater in Venice. In 2013, his works (150 pictures and art installations) were shown together in a survey exhibition (1978-2013) set up inside of Parco del Contemporaneo of Forte Marghera, in Mestre (Venice).
