Tra i più prolifici musicisti della scena impro e sperimentale europea, il polacco Robert Piotrwicz lavora in solo e come strumentista principalmente dal vivo, in un set con chitarra elettrica e un sintetizzatore analogico modulare. Proviene da studi di elettroacustica e composizione ed ha composto per il teatro, ideato pezzi per la radio, partecipato a svariati progetti artistici interdisciplinari e creato installazioni sonore.

Il suo suono è caratterizzato da un'intensa dinamica che assume forme emozionanti di grande equilibrio; l’ultimo album da solista, Lasting Clinamen del 2008, ha ricevuto notevoli riscontri dalla critica internazionale. Tra i numerosi eventi e festival internazionali si è esibito a Densities 2005, Ultra Hang 2007, Hapzura 2007, Club Transmediale 2008, Stimul 08.

Robert Piotrowiczis is a sound artist, composer, improviser from Poland. He has authored radio dramas, sound installations, and music for theatre productions, and collaborates regularly with other artists on audio-visual performances. As an instrumentalist, Piotrowicz works mainly with his own live performance setup, developed around the electric guitar and analogue modular synthesiser. His music has as much in common with contemporary electro-acoustic compositions as it does with sound art. His concerts feature saturated, detailed musical forms created with analogue synthesizers and computers. He has developed his trademark sound of intense dynamics seized in dramatic and balanced structures. PIotrowicz has released several solo albums as well as collaborations with artists such as Burkhard Stangl, Anna Zaradny, Jerome Noetinger, C. Spencer Yeh and Kevin Drumm. Other collaborators in recent years included Valerio Tricoli, Oren Ambarchi, Martin Klapper, Zbigniew Karkowski, Lukasz Szalankiewicz, Lasse Marhaug, John Hegre, Kasper Toepltz, Xavier Charles,Tony Buck and others. Piotrowicz has given live performances throughout Europe, North & Central America, Japan and Australia.
