Arcangelo Sassolino nasce nel a Vicenza, città dove vive e lavora. La sua ricerca ha origine dalla compenetrazione tra arte e fisica, nel costante interesse per la meccanica e la tecnologia in quanto fonte di nuove possibilità di configurazione della scultura e di indagine sulle energie latenti della materia. Velocità, pressione, gravità, tensione costituiscono le basi di una ricerca rigorosa, sempre protesa a sondare il limite ultimo di resistenza e di non ritorno. Il suo percorso è scandito da mostre personali tenute in prestigiose sedi pubbliche. Tra queste: Palais de Tokyo, Parigi, ; MACRO, Roma, ; Frankfurter Kunstverein, Francoforte e Contemporary Art Museum, St. Louis, ; Villa Medici, Roma, Grandi installazioni sono state presentate allo Z33 Center for Contemporary Art, Hasselt, , e nell’ambito di Art and The City, Zurigo, Altre sedi che hanno accolto suoi lavori sono: Kunsthalle Göppingen, Göppingen, ; FRAC, Rheims, ; Château de Tokyo / Palais de Fontainebleau, Fontainebleau e Dunkers Kulturhus, Helsingborg, ; Essl Museum, Vienna e Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venezia, ; Centro di Cultura Contemporanea in

Arcangelo Sassolino was born in Vicenza, Italy in , where he lives and works. 

Sassolino’s sculptures and installations explore mechanical behaviours, materials, and physical properties of force. By applying these properties to the natural world and behaviours, the artist examines the friction between industrial progress and environmental concerns. 

Sassolino’s works are carefully planned and researched, resulting in constructions of a high degree of physicality and forces applied by or on an object, as he pushes materials past their physical limitations. The tension, the expectation, and the awareness of risk—along with the powerful aesthetics of the works—play key roles in the experience of the spectators.

Arcangelo Sassolino has had solo exhibitions at Pearl Lam Galleries H Queen’s, Hong Kong, China (); Galleria Continua, San Gimignano, Italy (); Galerie Rolando Anselmi, Berlin, Germany (); Contemporary Art Museum, St. Louis, Missouri, USA (); the Frankfurter Kunstverein, Frankfurt, Germany (); Galleria Continua, San Gimignano, Italy (); Palais de Tokyo, Paris, France (); and MACRO Museum, Rome, Italy (), among others. He also presented an environmental project
