I was born in London, back in black and white.
Angelo Valentino is an artist working in two visible registers and one invisible one.
A small number of photographic works are released publicly each year.
They are sold directly, often to collectors who have found this site by chance.
Most of the proceeds are used to fund larger projects that are not publicly attributed.
These works appear in the world without explanation, ownership or announcement.
Those who know, know.
In 2009 I published an early paper proposing the use of cryptographic and data systems to authenticate artworks while retaining long-term artist control and resale participation.
Some people later described this as foundational thinking behind NFTs.
The visible works on this site are not the main event.
They are a mechanism.
Collectors who acquire them are not just purchasing an image.
They are quietly supporting the continuation of projects that operate outside conventional exhibition structures.
I release very few works. Price rises after each sale.
There is no catalogue and no preview archive.
I have been an influential pioneer in Digital Art, photography and AI.
Most buyers come through private referral or accidental discovery.
I live mostly in London and travel often.
I occasionally meet collectors in person.
I do not give press interviews about the anonymous projects, and I don’t comment on speculation about authorship of other artists or movements.
If the work resonates, you will know what to do.
Thank you everyone that has helped me, knowing or not.
