Biography

He studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Roma and at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan, where he was, among others, student of Luciano Fabro. In addition, he followed the lessons of Giorgio Agamben at the IUAV of Venice in Italy. Fiori welcomes the affirmation of Luciano Fabro that the artist transmits his experience without pre-conceptual categories: this perspective will bring him subsequently closer to the theatre and work of Carmelo Bene and the anthropological paradigm of Ernesto de Martino. These suggestions, transferred and reinterpreted in the cinematographic field, will be fundamental also in the approach the will give to documentary filmmaking. Of particular significance for Diego Fiori are the poetics of Pedro Costa, Jean-Marie Straub, Danièle Huillet, Vittorio De Seta, Michael Glawogger and the friendship with the Italian documentarist Luigi Di Gianni. The thesis Il potere sui corpi, la potenza del corpo. L'arte come forma di resilienza, elaborated with the guidance of the art historian Giovanna dalla Chiesa, was published in 2015 with the title "Wissen Sie, das Volk fehlt – Zum Konzept der Resilienz" in the German-language magazine "Texte: Psychoanalyse. Ästhetik. Kulturkritik, with which he started a collaboration from the moment on". In the sector of Video art he began his career in 2009 with the "Trilogy of Silence", composed by: "Donate Silence", "Birth and Death of Alter Ego" and "Last Classical Kiss", winning the Silver Award at the Laznia Centre for Contemporary Art in Poland. The "Trilogy of Silence" participated at numerous Film Festivals and Art Festivals, marking the beginning of a successful season in the production and distribution of short films in the field of Video art.

From 2007 to 2010 he was a Subject Expert at the Faculty of Social Anthropology at the University of Cassino and Southern Lazio, participating, for the visual aspects, to the research activities of the chair.

From 2010 to 2012 he was a Subject Expert at the Faculty of Sculpture at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Frosinone.
