Biography of Ugo Attardi
Ugo Attardi was born in 1932 in Sori near Genoa. Hounded by fascism, his father, a trade unionist, was forced to flee to Sicily. His family later settled in Palermo where he studied Fine Arts for a year. He then decided to move to Rome, where he began to paint. In 1948 he created the Marxist movement of abstract art "Forma Uno", with other artists such as Piero Dorazio, M. Guerrini. This short experience allowed him to take a period of research necessary for his work. During the 1950s, he participated twice in the Venice Biennale and exhibited in Rome. It was during this period that he began his work as an engraver; he quickly became one of the most significant Italian engravers of his time thanks to his perfect mastery of drawing. In 1965, he participated in the Figuration Narrative exhibition in Paris. A multidisciplinary artist, he also devoted himself to sculpture and literature; in this last field, he was awarded the Viareggio Prize in 1971 with his first novel. Ugo Attardi died in 2006 in Rome.

Artists on display
The art and the artists display: proclamations, galleries, museums, personal or collective exhibitions. On walls or in shop windows, wise or rebels, posters warn, argue, show. Some were specially conceived by an artist for such or such event, other, colder, have only the letter.
Some were created in lithographic technic, most are simple offset reproductions. They are many those who like collecting these rectangles of paper, monochrome or in games of colours, in matt paper or brilliant, with many words or almost dumb.
We are happy also to be able to greet, by this pages, mythical galleries as those of Denise René, Louis Carré, Claude Bernard, Berheim Jeune, Maeght, Pierre Loeb and others.
