Biography

Introducing the Remarkable Journey of JetArt: A Visionary Albanian Artist
 

Prepare to be captivated by the extraordinary life and multifaceted talents of Jetmir Pjetërnikaj, known in the art world as JetArt. Born on May 28, 1985, in the picturesque village of Shëngjergj, Tropojë, Albania, Jetmir has embarked on a creative odyssey that has taken him from the rugged landscapes of Albania to the vibrant art scenes of Milan and Tirana. He is not just an artist; he's a painter, sculptor, art manager, actor, and director—a true Renaissance soul.
 

Jetmir Pjetërnikaj hails from a family of artists, and his artistic journey began at a young age. At 14, he left his homeland of Albania to settle in the artistic haven of Milan, Italy. While there, he completed his high school studies with a focus on social sciences before immersing himself in the world of art at the prestigious Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan in 2008. But Jetmir's thirst for artistic knowledge didn't stop there. He embarked on a journey of self-discovery, enrolling in various professional courses in jewelry design, decoration, pottery, and ceramic art.
 

It was during his two years of intensive sculpture studies that Jetmir Pjetërnikaj's path took a significant turn. He crossed paths with Giorgi Ghelfi, a renowned gallerist and art manager in Italy, who recognized Jetmir's immense talent and passion. In a moment that would shape his artistic destiny, Giorgi purchased Jetmir's very first painting, a symbolic step that marked the beginning of JetArt's journey in the world of painting.
 

Giorgio Ghelfi's influence didn't stop at collecting Jetmir's work; he became a mentor and friend, guiding him into the world of painting. With Giorgio's support, Jetmir Pjetërnikaj exhibited his artwork in esteemed galleries, including Montecatini Terme, Galleria Bertoletti di Lecco, and perspective art exhibitions, to name a few. Under Giorgi's mentorship, Jetmir also ventured into art management, opening the "JETART" studio-gallery—a testament to his artistic versatility.
 

Jetmir's passion for painting eventually led him to explore the world of cinema. In the early 2010s, he made waves as an actor in Italian short films like "L'autostrada del Sole" (2008) and "El Rato Quedado" (2009). In 2011, he wrote, directed, produced, and acted in his first feature-length film, 'Floorless,' a psychological thriller that saw its release in cinemas in 2017 after filming in Lombardy, Italy.
 

At the age of 27, Jetmir's journey took him to Paris, where he worked as an assistant director for a documentary titled "Red Angels" with the Albanian director Robert Qafzezi. During his time in Paris, Jetmir forged connections with renowned Albanian painter Artur Muharremi and continued to create and exhibit his artwork.
 

JetArt's exhibitions have left an indelible mark on the European art scene. Some of his most notable exhibitions include Arte Firenze in Florence, Italy (2009), Ghelfi Montecatini Gallery in Montecatini Terme, Italy (2010), Galleria Arcima in Paris, France (2010), and G/A/C in Bern, Switzerland (2011). His artistic journey has been a testament to the power of dedication, passion, and artistic expression.
 

In addition to his remarkable journey in the world of visual arts, Jetmir Pjetërnikaj has also ventured into sculpture, leaving a trail of breathtaking pieces. Notable among his sculptures is the stainless steel masterpiece in Dijon, France, standing at an impressive 316 centimeters in height, depicting a female half-bust. He also crafted a series of monumental sculptures for Orion Construction in Tirana, Albania, showcasing his patchwork technique in metal. One of the sculptures, a girl studying at a table with a pile of books, was inspired by Picasso's work and stands an impressive 405 centimeters tall.
 

JetArt's artistic legacy continues with sculptures like the "Canni Randaggi" in Italy—a powerful statement against animal abuse, and the "Iron Bull" and "Horsehead" sculptures in Tirana, Albania, which breathe life into metal with their impressive size and intricacy.
 

As an artist, Jetmir Pjetërnikaj's talents are not confined to the visual arts alone. His foray into the world of film has seen him take on various roles, from actor to director and screenwriter, in a diverse range of projects, including documentaries, TV comedies, and feature films.
