Ugo Locatelli (Brussels 1940, Piacenza 2023), a graduate in architecture from the Politecnico di Milano, has been exploring since 1962 the subtle but infinitely vast space between reality and interpretations of reality: a watermark where appearance is the surface of an explorable deposit, a multidisciplinary laboratory of learning through discovery. His work is guided by reflection on aesthetic philosophy and the interaction between knowledge in the contemporary world, towards an ecology of thought and vision.
