Fabrizio Plessi (3 April 1940 – 23 August 2026) was an Italian installation artist.[1]
Plessi used water as one of the central themes in his artwork, which also featured materials such as stone, rusted iron, wood, and straw.[2] In 2014, the Plessi Museum was inaugurated at Autostrada A22.[3] He described his art as "an incessant quest for poetry, history, and the soul of things"[4] and "that of a singular alchemist who brings together materials typical of the art world—such as iron, wood, and marble—with the iridescence of technology and electronics".[5]
