Lives and works between Milan and Berlin.
Alice Pedroletti is a multidisciplinary artist and researcher. Her ongoing studies deal with archiving as an artistic practice and methodology, collaborative and community projects, and the relationship between artworks and audiences in Public Art practices. Her work mainly concerns the environment, geography, geopolitics, and architecture.
Her independent studies followed the Learning-by-doing theory of education and a self-organised methodology by philosopher John Dewey, founder of the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools, and pedagogue Paulo Freire. Alice has been a Professor of photography, teaching documentary and personal research at Istituto Europeo di Design in Milan. She has also worked as a commercial photographer for fifteen years, mostly shooting in music, corporate, design, documentaries, and editorial fields. She has also worked in management, organisation, and leadership in education and culture. As an artist-curator, she founded ATRII Open Archive in 2015. Later, with curator and producer Eugeno Martino Nesi, she founded ATRII Association , a cultural project hosted inside the Cittadella degli Archivi (Milan Municipality Archive).
In 2020, Alice Pedroletti won the Italian Council (9th Edition) program by the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities. Since 2018, she’s been part of the Temporal School of Experimental Geography (UK/ES) and Rabbit Island (USA): artists’ networks focusing on ethical and experimental art practices concerning environmental and sustainability issues, geography, territories, and communities. She is also a member and collaborator of AWI – Art Workers Italia, an autonomous and non-partisan association created to give voice to contemporary art workers in Italy.
In 2020, with artist Andrea Familari, she founded u-form, a duo project based in Berlin that works in digital geography, databases, sounds, and images. Their first project is u-form.earth, a living artwork intended as new archaeology for the future, a platform open to collaboration and experimentation in digital fieldwork.

Alice Pedroletti is a multidisciplinary artist and researcher. Her ongoing studies deal with archiving as an artistic practice and methodology, collaborative and community projects, and the relationship between artworks and audiences in Public Art practices. Her work mainly concerns the environment, geography, geopolitics, and architecture.
Her independent studies followed the Learning-by-doing theory of education and a self-organised methodology by philosopher John Dewey, founder of the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools, and pedagogue Paulo Freire. Alice has been a Professor of photography, teaching documentary and personal research at Istituto Europeo di Design in Milan. She has also worked as a commercial photographer for fifteen years, mostly shooting in music, corporate, design, documentaries, and editorial fields. She has also worked in management, organisation, and leadership in education and culture. As an artist-curator, she founded ATRII Open Archive in 2015. Later, with curator and producer Eugeno Martino Nesi, she founded ATRII Association , a cultural project hosted inside the Cittadella degli Archivi (Milan Municipality Archive).
In 2020, Alice Pedroletti won the Italian Council (9th Edition) program by the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities. Since 2018, she’s been part of the Temporal School of Experimental Geography (UK/ES) and Rabbit Island (USA): artists’ networks focusing on ethical and experimental art practices concerning environmental and sustainability issues, geography, territories, and communities. She is also a member and collaborator of AWI – Art Workers Italia, an autonomous and non-partisan association created to give voice to contemporary art workers in Italy.
In 2020, with artist Andrea Familari, she founded u-form, a duo project based in Berlin that works in digital geography, databases, sounds, and images. Their first project is u-form.earth, a living artwork intended as new archaeology for the future, a platform open to collaboration and experimentation in digital fieldwork.
