Artist

Fausto Melotti, born in Rovereto (Trento) in 1901, moved with his family to Florence, where he completed his secondary studies. In 1918 he enrolled in the Electrotechnical Engineering course of the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of the University of Pisa and graduated in this discipline at Milan Polytechnic in 1924. Later he studied music and began to take an interest in sculpture: he attended the Turin studio of Pietro Canonica and enrolled at Brera Academy in the course held by Adolfo Wildt. Here he met Lucio Fontana, with whom he established a deep and lasting friendship.
