Life and work

Del Favero was born in Sydney of Italian migrants from Cadore. He completed undergraduate and postgraduate studies in philosophy, visual arts and media arts at the University of Sydney, the University of New South Wales and the University of Technology, Sydney.

Del Favero's work explores the social and personal interrelationships between the human and the 'natural' worlds, utilizing experimental media to evoke the ways in which these underlying formative connections endure beyond our attempts to deny them. His recent work is particularly interested in exploring the way one might live in a world increasingly haunted by this often unacknowledged and suppressed relationship between the human world and its enveloping habitat and how these hauntings reveal themselves as involuntary embodiments of the past in the present and of the present in the future.

His work has been extensively curated internationally for individual exhibitions in museums and galleries such as Sprengel Museum, Hannover; Münchner Stadtmuseum, Munich; ViaFarini, Milan; and Neue Galerie, Graz; Galerie Brigitte Schenk, Cologne; as well as having been included in group exhibitions such as The Art of Immersion, ZKM, Karlsruhe, 2017; Sydney Film Festival, 2016 & 2011; Art Cologne, Cologne, 2014 & 1995; International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam, 2009; Imagining Media@ZKM, Centre for Art and Media, Karlsruhe, 2009; Biennial of Australian Art, Adelaide, 2008; International Biennial of Contemporary Art of Seville, 2008; Artescienza: Spazio Deformato, Casa dell'Architettura, Rome, 2006; Videonale, Kunstmuseum Bonn, 2005; Cinemas du Futur, Euralille, 2004; Future Cinema, Kiasma Museum for Contemporary Art, Helsinki; (dis)LOCATIONS, ACMI - Australian Centre for the Moving Image, Melbourne, 2001; Fotofeis, Edinburgh & Glasgow, 1998; and Kriegszustand, Battle of the Nations War Memorial, Leipzig, 1996.
