German Evangelisti (b. 1976) is a Chilean-Italian sculptor based in Oslo, Norway. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from the University of Chile (2001). Evangelisti’s artistic career has seen him create public sculptures in Chile,Argentina, and Norway.
His career can be divided between small-format sculptures, where, from a modernist perspective, he mixes the beauty of machines with unconventional studies of anatomy, and public sculptures. In these he experiments with haptic spaces, where linear structures determine spaces, where the human being “lives” the sculpture in contrast to the habitability of architecture.
Since 2011, Evangelisti has been living and working in Oslo, where he has continued to create public sculptures. Alongside his independent artistic practice, he has focused on social development art projects that involve the community in co-creating public sculptures. These projects aim to improve public spaces and foster a sense of belonging and identity among residents and users.
