He was inspired by Surrealism and Pop art. After graduating in Literature from the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in Milan, Italy, Tadini began his literary activity at just 20 years old in Elio Vittorini 's Il Politecnico magazine in 1947 where he published The Passion According to Matthew and won the Serra prize with the jury Montale, Solmi and Muscetta. Since then he has never stopped his passion for writing and published essays, novels, poems and monologues. Among his writings, The Long Night won the 1987 Campiello Selection Award; The storm obtained the National Rhegium Julii Award and the Bergamo Award and became a theatrical show at the Franco Parent . He also translated important works of the twentieth century such as Stendhal, Ezra Pound, Eliot, Céline, William Faulkner for publishers such as Einaudi and many others. In the late 1950's Tadini began to paint. His first solo exhibition was in 1961 at the Galleria del Cavallino in Venice, and then in 1965, in a group show, together with Mario Schifano, Valerio Adami and Lucio Del Pezzo at the newly opened Studio Marconi in Milan. Although stylistically ‘Pop’ Tadini, rather than the superficial gloss of American Pop Art, was greater interested in the more introspective, personal, and at times intellectual British Pop Art such as Peter Blake, David Hockney and Allen Jones, but also to that of Francis Bacon, Patrick Caulfield, Ronald Kitaj, and the figurative narratives of Valerio Adami and Hervé Télémaque. He exhibited his first art works in the sixties. His first exhibition was in Venice at the Galleria del Cavallino and his first collector was the artist Tancredi. He was invited to the Venice Biennale in '78 and '82. His pictorial work develops in several cycles. He was influenced by Pop Art, Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein and in particular British Pop Art, Eduardo Paolozzi, Richard Hamilton and Peter Blake and by the painting of Giorgio De Chirico and Pablo Picasso. He develops an increasingly refined, original, dreamlike language of figuration. In 1992 he began writing about art and literature for Corriere della Sera. In 1997 he was the author and host of the Contesto program on Tele +. From 2000 to 2001 he collaborated with RSI Cultural ( Swiss Radio and Television ), but also with Rai . He becomes director of the Bagutta Prize and member of the jury of the IX Italo Calvino Prize 1996. He was part of a post war generation of European artists influenced by Dada and Surrealism that included Jean Michel Folon, Hundertwasser, Enrico Baj and Eugenio Carmi. In 2001 his last retrospective was held in Milan at Palazzo Reale. After his death (2002) from 24 to 25 September 2004, at the Royal Palace in Milan, the Corriere della Sera Foundation organized the conference The figures, the things, in which prominent figures of culture, art and journalism such as Ferruccio de Bortoli, Umberto Eco, Paolo Fabbri, Valerio Adami, Carlo Arturo Quintavalle. He died in Milan on 25 September 2002 at the age of 75. In his memory, a museum in Milan, Spazio Tadini, was founded in 2008 and is part of the Storie Milanesi circuit.
