In 1990, he met the critic Giorgio Ruggeri on the occasion of an exhibition at the Nanni gallery in Bologna. He began a fruitful collaboration with the Sincron cultural center of Armando and Wanna Nizzi of Brescia in 1991. In 1992, he met Romano Piccichè, who published a long interview in the "Giornale di Sicilia" in August 1993.
The magazine "Brescia Ricerche" dedicated the cover of issue 12 to Guido Moretti in December 1995. In June 1996, he published his article on sculpture by separation and information technology and cutting-edge technologies at the service of sculpture.
