Art group founded in 2000 by Brice Coniglio and Andrea Raviola, and leaded by Brice Cornelio Coniglio.
From video art to multimedia theatre, from electronic music to performance art, from net.art to photography, there are few areas of contemporary art that have not been explored and ironically subverted by the tentacular operations of CONIGLIOVIOLA: “Renaissance workshop of the digital era” and genuine “brand”.

Well-known at the international level thanks to spectacular operations such as the Pirate Attack on the Biennale di Venezia (2007), CONIGLIOVIOLA is devoted to a radical and cross research into POP-ular culture, and especially into those shared cultural myths and clichés through which society represents and hide itself.
Multilinguism derives from a reflection on the digital medium intended as a meta-language. This allows CONIGLIOVIOLA to elaborate a project and then to articulate it into all possible art forms. As a result, and the use of different media notwithstanding, all projects are strictly linked one to the other. CONIGLIOVIOLA uses the intrinsic characteristic of digital medium – “fluidity” (Lev Manovich) – to liquefy the borderline between artistic genres and merge consolidated forms, styles and techniques. The digital revolution is therefore interpreted like an instrument in order to reestablish a Renaissance-like vision of the artist (capable of a complete, well rounded expression) and, at the same time, as an overcoming of the specialized vision of the individual, which is a heritage of the age of the Industrial revolution.
The logo of CONIGLIOVIOLA (translated: the Purple Rabbit), which features the Vitruvian rabbit represents this very aspiration towards total eclecticism, connected on one hand to the desire to reclaim a Renaissance vision of the artist, with the ironic exaltation of the human/rabbit figure, and on the other to a constant desecration of myth and legend. The decision to use this humorous, mysterious animal can therefore be linked not only to the surname of Brice Coniglio, its creator, but also to the mythology present in all cultures, according to which animals play a particular role of mediation between the human and transcendent spheres, identity and otherness.
In Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, the White Rabbit plays the role of Alice’s guide in the transition between two different spatial and temporal dimensions. This is the same role that CONIGLIOVIOLA assumes within its own research inside contemporary art: an investigation on the more and more uncertain borderlines of creativity and, at the same time, the creation of surreal and self-contained worlds. So CONIGLIOVIOLA’s operations are in some ways difficult to label, and as a result they are unconventional within the Art system.
Among the various project starring CONIGLIOVIOLA, besides the Pirate Attack on Venice Biennal, must be mentioned: the net-artwork La meditazione di Yolanda (Yolanda's Meditation), the theatre show Recuperate Le Vostre Radici Quadrate (Reclaim Your Square Roots), the cover of Pagine Bianche Piemonte (Piedmont Phone Book) (2007), the Nous deux project with Unicredit&Art (Paris, 2007), as well as several collaborations: with the Italian singer Loredana Bertè, the fashion designers Etro, Vivienne Westwood and Antonio Marras, the art critics Achille Bonito Oliva and Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo (performing the unconventional role of actors), the IRAA Theatre Company and the director Valter Malosti.
In 2009 the Milan PAC ( Padiglione d'Arte Contemporanea - Contemporary Art Pavilion) dedicated to CONIGLIOVIOLA a remarkable solo exhibition entitled Sono un pirata / Sono un signore (I'm a pirate / I'm a gentleman). The exhibition was visited by more that ten thousand people in just ten days. The texts collected in the exhibit catalogue, published by Silvana Editoriale, were written by Antonio Arevalo, Alessandro Bergonzoni, Achille Bonito Oliva, Martina Corgnati, Maurizio Ferraris, Tommaso Labranca, Milva, Domenico Quaranta, Laura Serani and Massimiliano Finazzer Flory (Coincillor of Culture of the City of Milan)

In 2009 a new theatre show debuted at Teatro Stabile di Torino, within the programme of Prospettiva Festival curated by Fabrizio Arcuri: Concerto senza titolo (Concert without title), starring Antonella Ruggiero: the result of a research into the collision between the taboo topic of death and pop culture.
