Patrick Lo Giudice born August 20, 1959 in Zurich is a Swiss artist of Italian origin. Painter, photographer, he also creates collages and encaustics. In Switzerland he became famous for the controversial series Der Lo Giudice Code, wax representations of mafia murders.<\/p>

Lo Giudice lived in Graniti in Sicily in the municipality of Taormina for 3 years. During his stays in Italy he suffered a trauma: bored, while his father talked to a wood seller, the young Lo Giudice walked between the parked cars, looking at the rev counter to see which was the fastest. But the rev counter was not visible, hidden by a corpse, probably a victim of the mafia. This incident left its mark and, later, inspired the artist. The Lo Giudices left without calling the police. They did not talk about their experience, because the clans were very powerful, even if his father, a socialist-communist, was never blackmailed for his work as a carpenter. After the discovery of an unexploded bomb, the Lo Giudices left Italy for Switzerland. Lo Giudice had already completed his first work in Italy: a fresco in the Antoniano Orphanage in 1973.<\/p>

In Switzerland he began his apprenticeship as a dentist in Winterthur. In 1977 he made his first oil paintings and in 1983 his first creations on glass; the American John Forbes taught him the techniques of glass blowing. From 1985 to 1988 he stayed again with glass blowers and artists from Murano to Venice. In 1993 he made his first attempts with polycarbonate and in 1996 with wax (encaustic).<\/p>

In 2002-2003 Lo Giudice exhibited his works at the Kunsthaus Glarus, in an exhibition entitled \u201cK\u00fcnstler aus dem Linthgebiet\u201d. \u201cArtists from the Linth region\u201d. Other exhibitions followed: at the Museum of Amden (St. Gallen) and at the Marie-Louise Wirth Gallery in Hochfelden, the gallery that also exhibited the works of Silvio Blatter (writer-painter from the Freiamt in Aargau).<\/p>

In 2004 Lo Giudice\u2019s Encaustik paintings were exhibited at the Andy Jllien Gallery in Zurich. In 2005 Lo Giudice participated in the Kunst liest project \u201cArt reads\u201d in Herrliberg-Feldmeilen. In 2006 he exhibited the series \u201cMafia\u201d (Cosa Nostra) at Andy Jllien. He also exhibited at \u201cart felchlin \u2013 zeitgen\u00f6ssische Kunst\u201d.<\/p>

He achieved fame thanks to his works on the mafia and the Kurt Aeschbacher Show (talk show on the SF1 channel).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
