selected works 2015-2025 (Gesamtwerk)
Friedrich Andreoni (*1995) grew up between Italy and the Arabian Peninsula and currently lives between Germany and Italy. His interdisciplinary artistic practice encompasses sound, sculpture, drawing, installation, performance, and video.
He studied Fine Arts (sculpture) at the weißensee kunsthochschule berlin, completing his degree in 2020. From 2018 to 2023, he was an active member of the German Academic Scholarship Foundation (Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes). In 2020, he was awarded a DAAD fellowship that enabled him to pursue a two-year master’s degree and an artistic research program at the Sound Department of The School of The Art Institute of Chicago, where he earned his MFA. From 2022 to 2024, Andreoni continued to develop his artistic practice as a Meisterschüler of Turner Prize–winning artist Susan Philipsz at the Academy of Fine Arts Dresden.
In 2023, he won the Ducato Art Prize in the Academy section and received a special mention as the only visual artist honored at the Prize of the Pontifical Academy of Virtuosi at the Pantheon in Vatican City.
In 2024, he was among the first artists-in-residence at the Museo Novecento in Florence. That same year, he created a series of public space installations for Pesaro Italian Capital of Culture 2024, and presented a solo exhibition at Galerie Met in Berlin during Berlin Art Week.
At the beginning of 2025, Andreoni held a solo exhibition in collaboration with the Fondazione Claudia Cardinale at the Château de Fontainebleau and Château de Nemours in France. Later in 2025, he undertook a residency at Alchemilla in the historic Palazzo Vizzani Lambertini Sanguinetti in Bologna, culminating in an exhibition that explored the building’s layered history through sound, light, and spatial interventions.
In June 2025, his first institutional solo exhibition in Germany, This all sounds, opened at the Caspar-David-Friedrich-Zentrum in Greifswald. Also in 2025, he participated in BIENALSUR and was awarded the Italian Council, 14th edition (from the Italian Ministry of Culture, MiC). That same year, Friedrich Andreoni was selected by Francesco Bonami to participate in the 18th Quadriennale di Roma.
