Leonardo Pirondi

Overview

LEONARDO PIRONDI is a filmmaker and artist born in São Paulo, Brazil. His films often inhabit realities similar to ours while creating friction between documentary and fictional structures; his filmmaking practice emerges from the fabulation of sociopolitical resonances within culture, myth, history, technology, and image-making. His films have been exhibited in various festivals worldwide, including Toronto, the Tiger Short Competition in Rotterdam, New York, Viennale, Mar del Plata, BFI London, Festival du Nouveau Cinéma, Edinburgh, Melbourne, Guanajuato, Slamdance, True/False, Ambulante, Media City and many others.

His films and installations have been seen in art centers such as CCCB (Barcelona), Wexner Center for the Arts, and REDCAT (USA), and he has had solo exhibitions at Galeria Mola (Portugal) and Spectacle Theater (New York). Some of his 35mm films live in the UCLA Film & Television Archive collection; some digital ones exist in the Cinematheque of the Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro and The Film-Makers' Cooperative in New York City. He holds a degree in Film/Video from the California Institute of the Arts, is a Sundance Institute Fellow, and has received the Allan Sekula Social Documentary Fund and Tim Disney Prize for Excellence in the Storytelling Arts.
