Luigi Veronesi (1908-1998), Milanese, a central figure of Italian abstractionism. He lives in the Milanese city the creative ferment of the thirties, first entering with figurative photographic works into the Galleria del Milione, a decisive center for the cultural, artistic, and promotional aspects of the most promising artists of those years. He then turns to abstraction in the early thirties, joining the 1935 "Mostra collettiva d'arte astratta" in Turin at the studios of Felice Casorati and Enrico Paolucci. Already in 1934 he joined the Parisian group Abstraction-Creation, actively engaging with the German Bauhaus. From the forties he delves into experimenting with film technique, creating as many as six abstract films, of which today only some fragments remain non-projected. The experimentation continued in the following years, the last abstract film is from 1980. A multifaceted artist, he was also interested in music and screenwriting; his painting activity continued until his death in Milan in 1998.
