In 2017, he obtained a Master in painting at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp, Belgium after graduating with BA at IUAV Visual Arts in Venice. Fogo approaches through his painting practice, how the idea of mythical reasoning remains poignant to the revelation of our contemporary reality. Sourcing the myths around Italian mythological tales and the multifarious forms of idols throughout history, Fogo weaves personal narratives with mystical symbology to conjure visionary and allegorical qualities to his paintings. Like sensate lullabies, each scene speaks a mystical idiolect of their own, a language of lamentation for mystical lost to avant-garde practises throughout the present. Fogo’s solo exhibitions include: Hierophany, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2023; Hang a crocodile outside for the unbelievers, Cassina Projects, Milan, 2023; Black Morning, Alessandro Fogo & Paola Angelini, Lyles & King Gallery, New York, 2022; Skins and leathers, PM/AM Gallery, London, 2022; Alla luce del sole, un attimo prima di spegnersi, Galleria Annarumma, Naples, 2021.
