Profaizer Paolo

Paolo Profaizer was born in Bolzano in 1961. He spent long periods of his childhood in close contact with nature.

Raised in a traditional family, he had to fight for his independence and search for identity during his teenage years. It was during this period that the foundations were laid for his interest in psychology and ethics, which would become central themes in his work alongside environmental and social issues.
He graduated from the D.A.M.S. in Bologna, in the Visual Arts department.

His works are held in private and public collections, including those of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano and the Casa di Dante Foundation in Abruzzo.
In 2022, he created Zero-risk.EXE, a permanent installation at the Office of Geology and Materials Testing of the Province of Bolzano.
Since 2019, alongside his artistic practice, he has been running workshops related to his research at the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology, the Bolzano Museum of Natural Sciences, the San Procolo Museum in Naturno and other public and private institutions.
