1969年生于意大利米兰，生活和工作在柏林和米兰。在劳瑞斯·切克尼的作品中，摄影、绘画、雕塑和装置相结合，形成了统一的美学理念。切克尼的作品既归功于他对多种媒体的专业知识，也归功于他不倦的好奇心。在他的作品中出现的主题包括多种拼贴的和细节化的建筑模型、橡胶中的物体、重塑的大篷车和树屋、结构扭曲的空间以及棱镜、透明的封面和表面。切克尼作品的核心是对空间性的全新解读：物理空间被解释为生物的、有机的，和具有生命力的东西，但同时也是理性结构的、机械生产的、完美人造的，但又被赋予了有机结构的功能。
作为国际舞台上最杰出的意大利艺术家之一，他在全球范围内展出了他的作品，并在诸如巴黎的巴黎东京宫、圣艾蒂安大都会现代艺术博物馆、纽约MoMA PS1、上海多伦现代艺术馆、帕尔马·德·马略卡的卡萨尔·索列里克博物馆、圣地亚哥·德·孔波斯特拉的加利西亚当代艺术中心、海德堡艺术协会、普拉托的路易吉·佩奇当代艺术中心和米兰的阿尔纳尔多·波莫多基金会等重要博物馆举办了个展。
劳瑞斯·切克尼曾参加多个国际展览，包括第56届、第51届和第49届威尼斯双年展，第6届和第9届上海双年展，第15届和第13届罗马四年展，台北双年展，西班牙瓦伦西亚双年展以及中国深圳城市主义/建筑双年展（UABB）。
他还参加了多个集体展览，其中包括在科隆路德维希博物馆、米兰PAC、威尼斯福尔图尼宫、罗马宏未来、罗韦雷托的MART、伦敦海沃德画廊、莫斯科当代文化中心The Garage、罗马展览宫、里昂当代艺术博物馆、上海MOCA、柏林德意志银行艺术大厅等地的展览。
他创作了多个永久性和特定场所的装置，特别是在皮斯托亚的维拉·切莱、佛罗伦萨的斯特罗齐宫庭院、布鲁塞尔的博戈西安基金会、美国克利夫兰诊所艺术与医学研究所、马赛的Les Terrasses Du Port，以及最近在首尔的辛世杰汉南Starfield和纽约的康奈尔科技大楼等地。
Born in 1969 and lives and works in Milan. He is an important figure on the Italian and international art scene coming to prominence through his sculpture, installation, photography and drawings. His works are often occupied by a metamorphosis, a potential transfiguration from one form to another. The relationship between the artist and the exhibition space as a place of cohabitation is influential in the genesis of many of Cecchini’s works. Surreal photomontages, grey monochromatic rubber installations, modular-based suspended installations, reticular structures and molecular forms are flexible not only in their occupation of their surrounding space but also in their development; the works are almost always potentially open to further elaborations like an expansive and distributive substance.
One of the most prominent Italian artists on the international stage he has exhibited his works throughout the world with solo exhibitions in prestigious museums such as Ca' Rezzonico in Venice, Palais de Tokyo in Paris, Musée d’Art Moderne de Saint- Étienne Métropole in Saint-Priest-en-Jarez, MoMA PS1 in New York, Shanghai Duolun MoMA of Shanghai, Museo Casal Solleric in Palma de Mallorca, Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea in Santiago de Compostela, Kunstverein of Heidelberg, Centro per lʼArte Contemporanea Luigi Pecci in Prato and Fondazione Arnaldo Pomodoro in Milan.
Loris Cecchini has participated in numerous international exhibitions, including the 56th, 51st and 49th Venice Biennale, the 6th and the 9th Shanghai Biennale, the 15th and 13th Rome Quadrennial, the Taiwan Biennale in Taipei, the Valencia Biennale in Spain and the Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture (UABB) in Shenzhen, China.
Loris Cecchini has also taken part in several collective shows, including exhibitions at the Ludwig Museum in Cologne, PAC in Milan, Palazzo Fortuny in Venice, Macro Future in Rome, MART in Rovereto, Londonʼs Hayward Gallery, The Garage Centre for Contemporary Culture in Moscow, Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome, Musée dʼArt Contemporain of Lyon, Shanghaiʼs MOCA, the Deutsche Bank Kunsthalle in Berlin and others.
