After seven years working in advertising without managing to persuade anyone to buy things they didn’t need, Sigalot decided to make the switch to the art world, where there is a greater appetite for the superfluous.
So he left Saatchi&Saatchi in London to move to Berlin, where, so as not to disappoint established Italian stereotypes, he named his studio La Pizzeria.
His works have been exhibited at the Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna in Rome, the Reggia di Caserta, the MOAD in Miami, the Palazzo Ducale in Genoa, the Triennale in Milan and the Palazzo Reale in Naples.
In 2019, he moved La Pizzeria to Naples, where he finally found the order and organisation that had been lacking in the German capital. But in 2023, after 23 years of travelling back and forth between Milan, Barcelona, London, Berlin and Naples, he moved back to Rome, where a new, larger Pizzeria opened in October 2023.
