Emanuel Zoncato was born in Vicenza on March 16, 1975. After completing his compulsory education, he enrolled in the Art High School "A. Martini" in Vicenza, where he learned the basic artistic techniques. Fascinated by the informal art of Alberto Burri, he soon discovered a love for materials.
Having graduated in 1994, he enrolled at the Accademia delle Belle Arti (Univerity of Fine Arts) in Venice, initially attending the painting course; later, he pursued a more fulfilling course in sculpture at the same University, learning about artistic three-dimensionality and graduating in 1998. From 2002 to 2011, he was a member of the cultural association "Terre Venete," which promotes and organizes artistic and cultural events.
For almost 20 years, he has worked as a sculptor at the company "Bruno Peotta e Geom. Luigi," an ancient and prestigious sculpture workshop founded in 1903, which still produces traditional stone works from Vicenza.
From 2016 to 2017, he exhibited at the Art Gallery of Alessandro Ghiotto in Vicenza. From 2017 to 2019, he was represented by the Marco Antonio Patrizio Gallery. In 2020, he began collaborating with SyArt Gallery in Sorrento. In 2022, he started collaborating with Galleria Damiani in Bari.
