Art career

He studied philosophy in Florence, Italy. He is a self-taught artist. [1] He is a pioneer of digital art in Italy, but his drawing abilities let him work with traditional media as well.[2] He was the co-founder of the Italian art and literature magazine "Mostro,"[3] where he published his first artworks. After that, his digital and traditional artworks were featured in many magazines around the world, like "Expose III", Ballistic Publishing (US); "Pixel Surgeons: Extreme Manipulation of the Figure in Photography", Mitchell Beazley Art & Design, Octopus ed.

He has exhibited internationally from Italy,[8][9][10] Germany,[11] Holland,[12] Switzerland,[13] England, US, Australia, Russia, and South America. His theory and practice have been extended as a workshop leader and lecturer in multimedia, especially in the field of AI, where he works both as an artist and a theorist.[14] In 2007, he became "Pornpope" founding the porn-artistic collective Pornsaints.[15][16][17][18][19] Francesco D'Isa serves as the editorial director for the cultural magazine L’Indiscreto[20] and contributes writings and illustrations to various magazines, both in Italy and abroad.
