Born in Barletta, Italy, lives and works in Berlin. “Rizzi’s practice is an act of mediation through which to present fundamental aspects of the lives of specific individuals or groups of people who have been compromised by the impact of the uprooting forces of neo-liberal globalisation. His works consider the notion of 'border', particularly in relation to issues of identity and presence, concentrating on collective memories and individual stories. Most specifically he is interested in those people who are in some way caught in a dialectic gap between places, sharing different cultures and values. Rizzi travels regularly, speeding long periods of time in the contexts he uses as a subject base, these residencies have included months spent in Istanbul to research and film 'Murat ve Ismail'(2005) and in 2007 time spent in Amman to film 'impermanent', an emotional interview with Ali Akilah.” (Vasif Kortun, 6th Taipei Biennial)
