Born in Rome in 1939 in his childhood he loved to draw and depict objects thus his first piece of work was realized in 1953. The first real interest in the world of painting developed between the 60's and the 70's years in which he worked at the art gallery "Galleria d'Arte 70" in Messina with Vincenzo Celi. His professional path as an artist begins in 1980 when Vitale comes back to his home town Rome. In Rome he studied and perfectioned his skills in the art studio of Ninni Verga. Between 1980 and 1990 he performed various paintings using classical methods, acrilic oil, watercolors, and paper. Since 1997 Lucio Vitale is better known as Luvit. His innovation in the name also reflects the innovation in the style and the use of methacrylic to which he is today completely devoted to. This matereal is perfect for Luvit's type of design and style since he abbandons any kind of traditional conception of painting in order to represent art in a virtual form. Luvit paints the back of plexiglass in order to create the sensation of looking at an impalpable material, he plays with the virtuality of images, he wants to foster fantasies and create a getaway towards immagination for a man who is loosing himself. Experts in the field have defined his art as something new, unique and contemporary althought at the same time full of artistic and intellectual content. Some of his works are enriched by phonosensible electrical circuits that make the spectator able to interact with the painting, some of them are full of lights that give the sensation of interaction and exeed the static of the work of art. At the beggining of the third millenium he proposed the archeologies of the future; a new series of art works that he calls "reperti" "archeological finds" that foretell the archeology of the virtual world. In the years beteen 2001 and 2003 Luvit lived in switzerland were his research on the "infinitly small" began. He exposed more than 100 pieces of work at Lausanne in an exposition called "Microcosmo". A Swiss art broker with international relations takes care of his work.
From the last decade of 20° the century dedication also to the Digital Art with renewed enthusiasm. 
Its works have been exposed in U.S.A., England, Germany, France, Spain, Swiss and Italy.
