Lorenzo Vignoli was born in 1981 in the medieval town of Lucca, Tuscany and was exposed to art from an early age.

He studied Painting at Central Saint Martin's School of Art in London and Figure Drawing and Urban Landscape at Art Institute of Chicago before embarking on years of formative travels, gathering creative inspirations at artist residences in far flung places like Rwanda, Israel, Bosnia, Ireland and Brazil.

Returning to his home town of Carrara, Italy, he enrolled in the Accademia di Belle Arti di Carrara and spent several years working as resident sculptor in the iconic marble emporiums in and around Carrara and Pietrasanta area.

Lorenzo Vignoli's skill of stonemasonry references the classical sense of beauty and aesthetic style of two sculptures in particular, Michelangelo and Rodin. His captivating sculptures are evocative of classical figurative forms as much as they are influenced by modernist abstract movements.

Vignoli’s artist studio in the hills outside of Carrara enjoys views of Pietrasanta's coastline and the towering Alpi Apuane mountains, where the most famous marble in the world is mined to this day.

Vignoli’s sculptures have been exhibited throughout Italy and in several public and commissioned projects in California, Australia, China, Brazil, France, Ireland, Israel, Estonia, Rwanda and Bosnia.
