About
Alessandro Zuek Simonetti
New York City based photographer Alessandro Zuek Simonetti
was born in Italy and grew up parallel to the urban street cultures
of the early 90’s. Developing his own distinct photographic
language reflects his deep interest in young niche cultures.
Quite often each project stretches beyond the photographic
medium which serves as a sign of his maturing expression
as an artist. After his graduation from the Accademy of
Fine Arts of Venice in 2001 he became a professor of
Photography at The Institute of Arts in Padova, Italy.
