As part of The King and I exhibition in Shanghai, China, Anzeri had his first public commission of a sculpture, Profiles for the Shanghai Gallery of Art in 2017.
In 2017 Anzeri was in London with Iconoclasts: Art Outside of the Mainstream at the Saatchi Gallery Amongst mixed reviews for the exhibition as a whole Anzeri received plaudits for his works; Among the 13 ‘iconoclasts’ on show was Maurizio Anzeri, known for photographic portraits that he embellishes with embroidery. Often the embroidery functions as an elaborate mask and, in the case of Yvonne, the effect is almost Cubist, recalling the multifaceted portraits of Picasso. Inspired by his Italian fishing heritage, the embroidery adds a third dimension to his photographs, offering an arresting juxtaposition of textures and colours, the Iconoclasts show was weirdly uneven: aside from Anzeri six rooms and within this myriad of ‘defiers’, you'll find the likes of French artist Thomas Mailaender, whose artworks dabble in replacing found images onto human flesh ... Alongside this, you will also find the intricate stitchings of Italian-British artist Maurizio Anzeri; the two traditional arts of fishing net repair and the 2D image being delicately spliced together despite the unlikely partnership Lay it on the line was Anzeri's solo exhibition of embroidered landscapes at the Haines Gallery in San Francisco, USA
In Anzeri's exhibition Many for the Haines Gallery in 2016 at Volta New York, his embroidered portraits were described as what was once a portrait is something else entirely; a formal, sculptural, diagrammatic artwork in which identity and expression are both camouflaged and revealed, engaging viewers in a sustained conversation and his embroidered landscapes the angled coloured threads suggest the tracing of recurring, unseen phenomena such as magnetic fields or paranormal activity. Yet Anzeri's interventions in to natural scenes...can just as easily promote an underlying sense of harmony
But my love does not die: works from the Alloggia collection in Rome, were exhibited at the Ivan Bruschi Museum in Arezzo, Italy in June 2016. The Alloggia collection includes works by Anzeri; Family 2008 and Military 2008, both embroidery on found photographs from the Family Album series A Take on Vintage Photography at the Photography Museum, Vilnius Lithuania, Anzeri exhibited alongside thirteen Lithuanian and foreign artists of different generations, who use vintage photographs for creation of new meanings Anzeri joined a talented assortment of artists in the group-show Allure, which opened in May at the C/O in Berlin, Germany and exhibited at PhotoLondon for The Photographer’s Gallery
Also in 2016, Anzeri was commissioned to create large scale art works and sculpture at Milan’s Royal Palace for an exhibition called The King and I The artists - Maurizio Anzeri, Arthur Arbesser, Paola Besana, Gentucca Bini, Matthew Herbert, Taisuke Koyama, Francesco Simeti, Adrian Wong & Shane Aspegren - have been called to write a collective story in which the fairy-tale imagination establishes a dialogue with the architecture and decorations of the apartment, including sculptures, photographs, clothes, installations and performances in 2017, The King and I was exhibited at the Shanghai Gallery of Art in Shanghai
In 2015 VaPensiero Anzeri's mobile sculpture made of 39 found photographs, embroidery and steel was exhibited at Miart- The International Fair of Contemporary and Modern Art , for the FANTOM photo foundation in Milan, Italy. He did a series of embroidered landscapes for The Mapmaker's Dream at the Haines Gallery in San Francisco, USA
Anzeri was commissioned to do a portrait by the Bavarian State Opera in Munich alongside other artists including Elizabeth Peyton, Vik Muniz and Stephan Balkenhol. Anzeri's portrait was a tribute to the soprano, Astrid Varnay that formed part of an exhibition at the Bavarian State Opera in 2014. Anzeri's work with found photographs inspired the Secondhand exhibition by Pier 24 in San Francisco in which he had a solo exhibition room. Pier 24Director, Christopher McCall wrote “..I encountered the intricately embroidered images of London based artist Maurizio Anzeri, who takes great pride in scouring flea markets and online stores for historic studio portraits. I wondered what historical precedent if any, existed for his unconventional approach. ..over the next several months I collected over 50 unique postcards to include alongside Anzeri’s surreal portraits; it is clear that these objects, once perceived commonplace, not only are part of the medium’s history but also need to be acknowledged and preserved."
Anzeri took part in the exhibition The Needles Eye at the Kode Museum in Bergen, Norway in 2014 and in the Oslo National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design in 2015. The exhibition was the reflection of a new interest in material-based art and hand-crafting techniques that had emerged in contemporary art and had gained new relevance in Northern Europe.
In 2013 Anzeri had another major solo exhibition at the Chapter Arts Centre in Cardiff, But it's Not Late, It's Only Dark. The Guardian Newspaper’s Art Critic, Sean O’ Hagan said “Anzeri has said that his embroidered images suggest "other possible evolutionary dimensions for the people pictured", but his work has a surrealist rather than a Darwinian undertow. Sombre-looking children and sophisticated adults take on an absurdist aspect. The people pictured all but disappear in the process, becoming shadows or outlines beneath the lines. What was once a portrait is something else entirely: a formal, sculptural, diagrammatic artwork in which identity and expression is camouflaged. Anzeri creates something new and surprising by applying an old-fashioned craft to old-fashioned artefacts He also took part in the group exhibition UK Photography Now at the Dong Gang Museum in South Korea
In 2012 Anzeri took part in group exhibitions Capogiro at the Museo Di Stato Della Repubblica in San Marino and MIART in Milan, Italy

In 2011 Anzeri held his first solo show in a major UK institution at the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, Family Day. The Baltic Gallery press release described the exhibition “Using individual and group portraits of unknown people of the 1930s and 1940s found in flea markets, Anzeri overlays meticulously patterned coloured threads by stitching and sewing directly on to the photographic surface. Obscuring part of the photograph, he both hides and heightens features of the face. These intricate additions create something almost three-dimensional, transforming flat images in to objects with a charged psychological presence. Anzeri draws upon a wide range of influences including contemporary fashion, voodoo ceremonies and surrealist imagery. Precise juxtapositions in his work recall the collage of the Surrealists and the photomontages of German Dadaists Hannah Hoch and Raoul Hausmann
Anzeri had his first solo show in a major UK gallery Family Day in 2011 at the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art and group shows Makeup at the Galleria A Palazzo in Brescia, Italy, Version and Diversions at the Temple Bar Gallery in Dublin, Ireland. 2011 was the first year Anzeri exhibited his work in the US with the exhibition Intersection at the Marlborough Gallery in New York and Alexander McQueen's Savage Beauty exhibition held after McQueen's death at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York Anzeri created ‘Lady Ugolino’ a sculptured coat made out of hair for McQueen's Eshu collection in 2000 and this was featured in the exhibition.

The exhibition The Photographic Object that included artists; Walead Beshty; Vanessa Billy; Annette Kelm; Gerhard Richter; Alina Szapocznikow; Wolfgang Tilmans; Andy Warhol and Catherine Yass who, like Anzeri, all worked closely with the medium of photography The Photographers Gallery brought together the nine artists who represent the physical and tactile quality of the photograph often lost in today’s digital internet world, ranging from the established (Andy Warhol) to the emerging (Maurizio Anzeri). A review of the exhibition described Anzeri's work as “a series of images (that) are punctured and altered with colourful and patterned string. The black and white figures lose their identity in the portraits as the web of thread masks their face leaving only the orifices untouched.”
