Ugo Nespolo is one of the most important Italian artists, known worldwide. An eclectic artist, he invites us into his galaxies of color and form.To define a word that captures the multifaceted nature of Ugo Nespolo’s activity, one would have to resort to a more complex expression — something like peintre-directeur-écrivain — which would still fall short of fully conveying his essence. He is indeed a painter, film director, and writer, but certainly not only that.He is also someone who persistently questions the condition and destiny of contemporary society and, in particular, of the art system, to which he belongs — albeit with growing unease — for nearly six decades."Universo Nespolo" is the volume that makes visible his workshop-like approach to creation, moving toward a total art that draws from Futurism, extends through Pop Art, and goes beyond.
