Aldo Borgonzoni (Medicina, 12 June 1913 – Bologna, 17 February 2004) was an Italian painter, among the most significant of Italian iconic art. After graduating in 1936 from the School of Art of Bologna, at the end of the decade he arrived at forms of expressionism consonant with the Scuola Romana di Corrente, constituting an exception in the traditional Emilian environment. From 1945 onwards the period of national and international personal and collective exhibitions began. The circle of his acquaintances, a source of great cultural and artistic enrichment, expanded like wildfire to include Mandelli, Rossi, Corsi. And in Guttuso's studio, where he moved at the turn of '49 and where he came into contact with Picasso's cubism to which many artists of the time devoted themselves, he collaborated with Cagli and De Chirico while simultaneously directing the Bernini Gallery in Piazza di Spagna. At this point he has already participated, among other things, in the Rome Quadrennial and the XXIV Venice Biennale.
