One hundred years after his birth, the article would like to examine the artistic career of
Giorgio Cipriani (Venice, 1921- Florence, 1994). Drawing on the unpublished materials of
the Siena archive, we will retrace some stages of a figure undoubtedly forgotten but whose
path, instead, has intertwined well-known paths, ranging from ceramics (exhibited at the
IX Triennale di Milano in 1951), to fabrics art, created for companies of absolute excellence,
to the creation of decorative panels for the ships of the Lauro Fleet and up to the sets for
various Italian theaters (including Teatro S. Carlo, Naples, Teatro La Fenice, Venice, Teatro
alla Scala, Milan).
