Born in Florence on 20 April 1946, Chia attended the Art Institute and subsequently the Academy of Fine Arts. At the age of 24, he settled in Rome where in 1971 he held his first personal exhibition at the La Salita Gallery.
Around 1976 he reached a turning point in his work when he abandoned the conceptual experiments and returned to painting and drawing.
A few years later, he exhibited at the "Aperto 80" section at the Venice Biennale together with the other members of the Transavanguardia, an artistic movement born in Italy in 1980, characterized by immediacy and, in some cases, by the "brutality" of the pictorial quality.
In the same year he went to New York where he exhibited with a solo show at the Galleria Sperone WestWater Fischer, after which he moved to the Big Apple, working between America and Italy.
In painting Sandro Chia admired and looked to the Masters of the past such as Tiziano, Masaccio, Tintoretto, Lotto and Michelangelo, and among the contemporaries De Chirico, Lèger, Cèzanne, Picabia and Chagall, whose works he re-elaborated and absorbed in his idea of art that finds inner reasons for its own existence.
His canvases, rich in light or heavy color, sinking their roots in the Italian golden tradition. Chia's mannerism rests on a style that tends towards the rapid change in painting.
