About the Item

Original art exhibition poster by painter and designer Ferruccio Garopesani. Presented in 1975 at the Galleria International d'Arte - Diorena - Ascona, Italy. A native of Milan, Italy, born October 9, 1914. Many of his works of art were acquired in the prestigious academies of Milan and Bergamo. After moving to Paris, he then discovered Switzerland in the mid-1950s, settled first in Lausanne, then in Leysin, before setting up his easel in Freiburg. From 1956, Ferruccio Garopesani was active in Switzerland creating works of art including paintings, graphics, mosaics, scenographic illustrations, stained glass windows and frescoes. Garo, as everyone in Freiborg called him used to paint in the streets of the city. Garo quickly became a “character known and loved by all, as described by Stefan Ledergerber, director of the Gutenberg Museum in Freiburg. He first painted oil, in the street. Then, back in the studio, he drew on his lithographic stones from the same subject. This technique of reproduction on stone, invented at the end of the 18th century, makes it possible to preserve the delicacy of the pencil, while offering infinite color variations, as evidenced by the ten monochrome inks shown upstairs, which ultimately form a proof. color, in the very enlightening didactic part of the exhibition, which notably features the last stone still drawn by the artist. He died in 1985.
