Mario Vandivinit (*1951) is a Luxembourgish painter and sculptor. Initially a student of well-known artist Frantz Kinnen (1905 - 1979), Mario Vandivinit later completed a three-year drawing course in Paris. It was there, where his artistic career took shape, marked by his participation in numerous exhibitions in the French capital.

Before turning toward abstraction in the 1990s, Vandivinit was deeply engaged with landscape painting. Traces of this early focus remain visible in his work today, transformed into a more abstract, visual language. Strong Mediterranean influences run throughout his paintings, expressed through a heightened sense of atmosphere and light, a warm, sun-soaked colour palette, organic, floral elements that often evoke fruit and plant life. In several works, the artist incorporates concrete, introducing structure and anchoring the compositions. This dialogue between organic forms and constructed material creates a sense of balance, harmony, and quiet tension within the work. The exhibition Under a warm sky. at the VGalerie. in Dudelange features his most recent paintings as well as a selection of sculptures.
