Alessandro Streccioni is an Italian artist working and living in Milwaukee Wisconsin. He holds a BFA at the California Of The Arts (CALARTS) and is currently pursuing a master’s degree in Film Video Animation and New Media at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, where he also teaches.

His work with moving images investigates the infrastructures put in place by history and dissect the conditions that they produce. Some recurring questions in Streccioni’s work are: If I close my eyes and see an image, where does that image come from? How do we exercise our freedom within the narratives put in place by time, history, society, beauty, success and happiness?

His installation Looking at the Stars asks the viewer to look at the Oscar’s ceremony through a telescope.

USA, USB is about two cables: a section of a 1600-mile-long cable that would have transmitted the order to deploy an atomic bomb during the cold war; and a USB cable.

His two films Of Walking In Rain and The Clover are about a herd of sheep. The first one is about the birth of a lamb; the second one is about illness and death. They have been screened at REDCAT, Whammy Analog Media (Los Angeles); and Limen Pastiche (Rome).
