Renzo Vespignani was born in Rome on February 19, 1924 to Guido Vespignani and Ester Molinari, great-grandson of Virginio Vespignani, a famous architect. After the death of his father, a surgeon and cardiologist, he had to move very young with his mother to
the proletarian area of Portonaccio, adjacent to the San Lorenzo district, where he grew up.
He began to paint during the Nazi occupation, hiding with the engraver Lino Bianchi Barriviera, his first teacher. Other important points of reference, which influenced his artistic beginnings, were Alberto Ziveri and Luigi Bartolini while, especially in his first
paintings, the influence of expressionists such as George Grosz and Otto Dix seems evident. In 1945 he exhibited his first personal exhibition and began to collaborate with various political-literary magazines (Domenica, Folla, Mercurio, La Fiera Letteraria) with
satirical writings, illustrations and drawings. His work, between 1944 and 1948, describes the attempt to resurrect an Italy destroyed by the war. In 1956 he founded, with other intellectuals, the magazine Città Aperta, focused on the problems of urban culture.
In 1961 he was among the winners of the Spoleto Prize; an essay was dedicated to the selected artists accompanied by large-format reproductions (black and white and four-color) of the exhibited works.
In 1963 a work by him was exhibited at the Contemporary Italian Paintings exhibition, set up in some Australian cities . In 1963-64 he exhibited at the exhibition Peintures italiennes d'aujourd'hui, organized in the Middle East and North Africa.
Since 1969, Vespignani has been working on large pictorial cycles dedicated to the crisis of the society of well-being: Imbarco per Citera (1969), concerning the intellectual class involved in '68; Album di Famiglia (1971), a controversial look at his personal daily
life; Between the two wars (1973-1975) an inflexible analysis of petty-bourgeois respectability and authoritarianism in Italy; Like flies in honey (1984) dedicated to Pier Paolo Pasolini. In 1991 he exhibited 124 works in Rome, including the cycle Manhattan
Transfert, a critique of the unsustainable existential delirium of the American way of life.
His relationship with literature is very close. Vespignani illustrates Boccaccio's Decameron, Leopardi's poems and prose, Majakowskij's Complete Works, Eliot's Four Quartets, Kafka's Tales, Belli's Sonnets, Porta's Poems, Villon's Testament and Alleg's La
Question. In 1999 he was elected President of the National Academy of San Luca and named Grand Officer of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic.
