Theo Eshetu

Theo Eshetu was born in London in 1958 to an Ethiopian father and a Dutch mother, and grew up between Ethiopia, Senegal, Yugoslavia, the Netherlands and Italy, following his parents' postings. At the age of ten, his grandfather, a diplomat and one of the most renowned historians of his country, gave him his first camera in Pompeii. Trained in London, a rock photographer in the seventies, he settled in Rome and devoted himself to video art, showing his installations in museums in Europe and the United States.
