Marc Vinciguerra is a sculptor and a philosopher of religions. He called Florence home for four years and in 2018 will exhibit a monumental sculpture in Venice. His work is an attempt to re-spiritualize art. He is a member of the prestigious Alpine Fellowship that reunites philosophers and artists at the Foundation Cini in Venice to reinvent the future of art. He is currently writing a book of philosophy on atheism.
