Walter Fusi Biography

Walter Fusi (Udine 1924) He completed his studies in Siena at the Art Institute which he attended until he graduated in 1943, and then enrolled at the Florence Academy at the end of the Second World War. In Florence, Fusi, who joined the informal movement, did not find fertile ground: Florentine artistic life was still linked to the aesthetic ideas of the Giubbe Rosse group (headed by Ottone Rosai) or tending towards neo-avant-garde ideas. His ideas instead found the right environment at the Galleria dell'Indiano, which welcomed informal artists and where he held some solo exhibitions between 1958 and 1964. Fusi, disheartened by the informal experience and, after a period of silence and reflection, arrives at geometric abstractionism. In the period from 1965 to the end of the seventies he was in Milan, where he experimented with concretism to create three-dimensional pictorial works. In 1979 Fusi returned to Florence where he rediscovered the pleasure of painting, returning to his informal origins and finding the right balance with geometric reflections.
